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.

@matrix I got through college on Gentoo (and later a half-assed LFS-in-an-initramfs kind of thing.)
Stuff is as stable as you make it.

Is anyone on or near #I95? I was planning on driving up to Alexandria today but all the tweets are scaring me.
Sorry I haven't been on much lately. Christmas plus I thought I'd have slapd set up by now.

If you want to be always up to date about what's cooking for the next #phosh release (besides what's already merged to the main branch) check out phosh-next: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh-next - it gets all the merge-requests that are waiting for more review, some minor cleanups, etc. The current list of MRs is in the commit message and `debian/changelog`.
Please don't ship that in distributions but additional review, feedback and testing is certainly very welcome.
