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.

"The #Barcelona #Olympics opening ceremony in 1992 foreshadowed the world battening a very COVID-looking global pandemic.
We saw similar clues in the London opening ceremony too. The evil genocidal Globalists hatched their plans long, long ago!"

Who tf came up with glass backs for phones, who tf though "yea lets take that SD card slot away" and who tf came up with the idea of battery driven devices that wont let you replace the battery? As proud user of old phones for years these are things that I just can't get over even tho I really like the probably first Flagship I ever owned (Oneplus 6). I can't get over the thought of people treating electronics as consumables while we kill our environment with trash, it's so sad!
