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.

Apparently the #FDA recalled the #COVID PCR tests because of the high falls positive rate. Almost no one talked about that.

You know, a joke never stole my bike.
A joke never robbed me at knifepoint.
A joke never broke into my friend and her grandmother's place for no reason.
A joke never walked up behind my brother and held him down while another joke beat the shit out of him for no reason.
A joke never beat my baby sitter, the sweetest little 12 year old girl you'd ever meet, half to death in a gang initiation.
A joke never beat my friend half to death and left dark bruises all over her body.
Maybe people need to remember that jokes aren't particularly harmful compared to actual stuff that happens every single day.
Just sayin'.

New versions of Windows might change the UI or underlying components, but they don't change the only thing important to know about Windows: it's nonfree software. Choose software that actually respects its users instead. https://u.fsf.org/3eu

reddit is bad for my well being, something about the format makes it more compelling to continue flaming dipshits on there than even facebook, and that's really bad.
(it's probably because the dipshits on facebook are dumber, and long-format flaming is more difficult. regardless, though, flaming dipshits isn't a good use of my time even if I am highly practiced)
