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.

Protesters BLOCK M25 for Eighth Time Causing Rush Hour CHAOS!
Protesters targeted junction 30, near Thurrock, Essex, from about 8am, in defiance of the High Court order made last week.
Nine activists (later arrested) brought a roundabout to a halt by gluing their hands to the floor, blocking commuters during rush hour.

A merge request was made for initial support for the #Fairphone4 just minutes after the device was announced, I think that is the quickest we got support for a device ever! And it's even (barebones) #mainline Linux!

@echo The only formal study on the effectiveness of masks (the paper is linked to from the CDC site) says they don't work.

Aussie Police ATTACK the Press
Shit really is going down in Australia, and with the media blackout of the Melbourne protests, it's important we highlight the struggle down under.
Australia's the test-bed, if she falls, WE'LL BE NEXT.

The CDC is now saying that the vaccinated carry more viral load of Delta and are more of a threat than the unvaccinated.
This is ridiculous - THE UNPROTECTED NEED PROTECTING FROM THE PROTECTED.

CANADIAN OVERCOUNT?
Wait, huh? … Canada will now count anyone who doesn’t have a test but is unwell with anything at all, as part of Covid positive numbers!
Why would they do this? Why perpetuate a problem where there isn’t one?

AUSTRALIAN DYSTOPIA?
Did the Australian politicians expect this to end any other way?
Welcome to the dystopian nightmare we now call reality…
@garritfra I use my normal desktop as a server (which is probably a bad idea.) The PSU is rated for 500watts but it almost certainly draws less.
