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.

It's like sending a child to a sleepover and he pissed the bed. The kids will never let him forget about it.
That's Joe Biden and The World Stage at the moment.
People from the southern part of #Virginia are telling me that:
Apparently some counties are "running out of ballots."
This sounds a little odd to me considering everyone has to register and they each have a single polling place to go to.

"This comment:
The childish elite can’t play by their own rules and keep moving the goalposts of this charade pandemic. So far they’ve banned Ivermectin and HCQ, and have changed the definitions of:
Herd Immunity: now only includes those vaccinated—They removed ‘natural immunity’ altogether
Vaccine: no longer grants immunity from disease. Now merely gives ‘protection’.
Pandemic: no longer requires mass sickness and death. Disease merely needs to be widespread."
