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.

I oppose:
* Slavery
* The Holocaust
* Repression
* Theocracy
I also oppose:
* Diversity
* Socialism
* Equality
...for the same reason: they create bad results, therefore are destructive to our future.

Bill Gates funded the development of a technology that stores vaccine information under your skin. He was also one of the founding members of the WEF's ID-2020 program that launched in 2018. Take a look at all the aspects of your life these "experts" intend to tie to this id. https://news.mit.edu/2019/storing-vaccine-history-skin-1218

We live in NC. My husband was at the ER on Friday...they never asked him if he was vaccinated. On his discharge papers...the very last page..."Covid Vaccination" page...it stated that there was no record of his Vax.
Well...that's a fact...but one that should be NONE of their business.
They are tracking the unvaccinated

I don't believe there's a such thing as intuitive interface design. People regularly ignore numbers and arrows the size of their hands.

This is why it is a good thing Trump isn't in office right now. Brandon administration also cannot control a virus.
