Email mastodon+swiley@swiley.net (this makes all of my computers beep and turn on an indicator light and is always the fastest way to reach me.) I was on octodon a while ago but abandoned my account. I've never been a member of gab or parlor.
If you’d like to learn to program I would consider the SICP [1] more or less the peak of American CS pedagogy (at least as far as beginners go) along with “The Practice of Programming” once you get through that.
I play ukulele, I’m ok at reading music and decent at improv. I learned from Walter Piston’s “Harmony” and some of Adam Neely’s videos.
My main phone is a pine phone so if I don’t pick up when you call the battery is probably dead, the modem is probably dead, or I’m currently swearing at calls/pulseaudio/alsa. I’d strongly recommend sending an email instead.
Dispite what my web page says I’ve stopped uploading my scratch projects to GitHub once I started to understand the basics of collaboration with git. I was using the flamegraph as gamification/motivation but it doesn’t work as well with feature branch/squash merge workflows so I just keep most things on my VPS until I’m happy with publishing updates.

We live in NC. My husband was at the ER on Friday...they never asked him if he was vaccinated. On his discharge papers...the very last page..."Covid Vaccination" page...it stated that there was no record of his Vax.
Well...that's a fact...but one that should be NONE of their business.
They are tracking the unvaccinated

Moorings suck.

Can't shut down the borders when it would actually help the problem though.

@pthenq1
I'd imagine if only my will is left I'd sail out into the sunset just to see how far I can make it.
@icedquinn @freemo
@freemo Yes, the question is how much of a stretch is it.
@freemo I want to see what my followers think.
Plus Biden is pretty bad.
@icedquinn I had a concierge at the place I lived near DC.
