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.

Weird how everyone's peddling a vaccine that only provides immunity for the people who make it

Another day in Vancouver. This morning I went to buy food in a farmer's market since restaurants require vaccine passports. I went to a German fast food and after they charged me for food they kicked me out of their patio outside because I don't have vaccine passport. In 50 to 70 years from now a leftist politician like Trudeau will apologize to the victims of the medical segregation like they do now to the victims of residential schools and internment camps.

Dinesh D'Souza (@dineshdsouza) -
Here’s the real @nickiminaj offense:
“If you’re black and a Democrat tells you to shove marbles up your ass, you have to.” This is the one thing she’s not supposed to say. Instead, she’s expected to do like @joyannreid and ask for more marbles.
@fatboy I've been saying this for a while. Closed, curated social media is one of the worst things you can expose yourself to.

@billfoxla - Law enforcement source on the ground at the bridge this morning just sent me this video showing the situation there.
I’m told a large majority of the migrants are Haitians and more are crossing into the US and arriving at the bridge by the minute. BP w/ limited manpower @FOXNews_LatestHeadlines
@bethibeth @jb55 @jujube I'd worry about a knock on your door by your government before I'd worry about getting banned from here.

@crackurbones I used to buy the Indian editions of textbooks in college when I really couldn't get away without one.
Modern undergraduate textbooks are almost universally a scam but at least the Indian editions are cheaper.

@emersion@octodon.social It's a bit macro heavy and the setjump at the beginning is disturbing. It's definitely not decomposed in an object oriented way but it doesn't seem too bad to me so far.

It is official: The biggest public health threat right now are “fully vaccinated” people, whom the CDC now warns are super-spreaders polluting society with Covid-19 “variants.”
Nothing the CDC did this past year helped bring the “case” count down, nor did the agency save any lives. To the contrary, by pushing face masks and Fauci Flu shots, the CDC took people’s lives, all the while depriving the public of information about how to support their immune systems naturally. https://rumble.com/vmlcsd-cdc-admits-that-fully-vaccinated-are-super-spreaders-carrying-deadly-varian.html
I don't know much about funerals or what goes into them but the camp this guy[1] is talking about does show up in Google Maps.
Also his witness of the pandemic in Britain matches what I've seen here.

We knew it would be used this way. After nearly three generations of desegregating people we're bringing it back again.
Next come the internment camps, genocide, and an ethnostate.
