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.

Fauci the Propagandist Liar
Fauci: COVID Booster Shot 'Absolutely Essential' for All Adults [do you believe the liar and one that conspired gain-of-function research through China lab] https://www.breitbart.com/health/2021/11/12/anthony-fauci-covid-booster-shot-absolutely-essential-for-all-adults/
Says he won't step down until COVID is in 'rearview mirror' https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation-politics/fauci-says-he-wont-step-down-until-covid-is-in-rearview-mirror/ https://www.postguam.com/the_globe/nation/fauci-wont-step-down-until-covid-19-is-in-rearview-mirror/article_ae96cfb8-45c7-11ec-b79b-2baa41f523a8.html

Great. The official procedure for unlocking the bootloader on this new old phone takes me to a login page and after logging in it takes me to a domain that no longer exists. It looked so promising. I finally managed to find a phone that supports the ROMs out there.
heh
They already pushed the #vaccine deadline back by a month at my company. Maybe if I handle it like everything else (just ignore it) then it will go away.

Unaccompanied Minors. An entire bus load full. All children...14-5 yrs old.
Are we going to be blamed for that? At 450k a pop?
Who in the hell sends children on a trek like that??? A 5 year old was found completely alone at our border.😐
Time to find the parents and fine THEM! What in the world?

Lots of exciting stuff happening currently with Pinecone, the overlay network we're building for P2P Matrix. A whole new real-time simulator/visualiser is on the horizon, letting us debug tree topology changes like this one.
