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.

A Microchip Containing Your Vaccine Passport Information Can Now Be Embedded In Your Hand
Society is increasingly being divided into two classes of people, and the class of people that is willingly conforming is being granted many “privileges” that the other group is being denied.
You are going to keep getting shots year after year after year in order to keep earning the “privileges” that you have been granted.
How sick is that? https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/microchip-containing-your-vaccine-passport-information-can-now-be-embedded-your-hand

NEW - German study on #COVID19 in kids ages 5-11 concludes: "Severe disease course or death is low," in fact the "case fatality could not be calculated, due to an absence of cases" for children without comorbidities.

@mrmcmayhem@noagendasocial.com I got bitched at by an Amazon driver for not wearing a mask in my own apartment building.
That was a big part of the reason I moved away.

>They're not foreigners, they're Danish citizens.
Then how exactly are they being discriminated?
>“non-Western” countries
If you like it so much there maybe you should move.

Interesting that people "sick" enough to be detained at Australia's Howard Springs covid 'resort' happen to be not so sick as to be able to climb fences and run for their lives. And the media is treating this like it's completely normal! WTFU people!

Democracy upholds fundamental rights because the constituents understand them as part of their culture. If replace them with foreigners who don't understand this democracy will fail to uphold fundamental rights. This isn't a complex idea.

Marcus Aurelius, the emperor and stoic, wrote: “Imagine you are dead. You have lived your life. Now take what’s left and live it properly.”

So the Court says I don't need to get a #vaccine .
I haven't gotten an email from the legal department saying that's the case though (on the other hand they're dog slow.)

🟡 Today, we're starting the process of refusing End-Of-Life relays in the Tor network.
Relays not using a current Tor version (0.3.5, 0.4.5, 0.4.6, and 0.4.7) are affected.
Relay operators: If your relay was part of the EOL list, please upgrade to a supported version and ideally our latest stable in order to rejoin the network.
If you need any help, please feel free to open a new topic on the Tor Forum or email tor-relays mailing list.

Meh, it's their country.
Unlimited immigration and democracy don't mix well at all. You can have one or the other but not both.
