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.

Q: Why was the electronics manufacturing engineer fired from the job, but later became a successful architect?
A: for creating a lot of bridges.
@watson@freeatlantis.com I live here, this isn't some uber conservative rural place, it's a very liberal DC suburb and the people at these school board meetings have very reasonable demands. The feds can *fuck off.*
@watson@freeatlantis.com But it's totally paid for!
God damn I hope they hang.

@Bleukitty idk we'll see. There were those people saying everyone was going to die and October and the deaths have gone up but it certainly hasn't been everyone.
