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.

@billfoxla - Law enforcement sources say there are up to 10,000 more migrants en route to cross illegally into Del Rio.
They have been walking across a dam in the Rio Grande all morning long, and they then walk to the international bridge where they are congregating underneath.

@FranklinGraham: "'Almost all the world’s constitutions are documents in which governments tell the people what their privileges are. Our Constitution is a document in which 'We the People' tell the government what it is allowed to do.' —President Ronald Reagan, 1989 #ConstitutionDay "
Happy #constitutionday.
Celebrate what's left of it before we get invaded, the federal government uses the military to perform a coup or abuses the states enough to give in, or a civil war destroys the union.

Maybe Biden will unite Americans by providing himself as a common enemy.

"NEW: We’ve learned that the FAA just implemented a two week TFR (Temporary Flight Restrictions) over the international bridge in Del Rio, TX, meaning we can no longer fly our FOX drone over it to show images of the thousands of migrants. FAA says special security reason."

If this were my meme I don't know that I would have used the word "hoax." I probably would have used a favorite Dvorakism:
BULL CRAP.
