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.

After his rejection of half the country as "the most dangerous group in the world" I thought maybe he's just getting old.
He seems to have either completely lost his mind or perhaps something deeper is wrong.

We are compiling a public list of companies applying vaccine mandates so that the public can know where to apply heat. If you work for a company or have information, email stopmedicaltyranny@protonmail.com with their policy document.
More info: action.stopmedicaltyranny.live
Spread this around. Help us cancel the mandates.
Biden is Virginia's best hope.
