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.

#Austria Federal gov's plan is to start serving notices for needle rape since january and lock in prison everyone refusing lethal injection for up to 6 weeks or fine 7000 eur.
I can't rule out people start killing anyone collaborating on this if it comes to that.

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.

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!
