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.

@MountainJay @Johncdvorak It's coming already, real estate is the only thing they really can't fudge and that's up 30%.
Maybe next month I can get some waterfront property to keep my boat at instead of the marina.
#eth price is over $4k again :)

How a simple Linux kernel memory corruption bug can lead to complete system compromise (Project Zero)

@mrman They're the same thing, it's massive inflation and the market hasn't corrected yet.

What if your notes were organized by your calendar instead of a document tree?
In my head it makes perfect sense to click on a past meeting and see what I wrote down in that context, instead of searching for a note written somewhere, at best tagged with that date.
Maybe there is even something like that out there?

The left has been waging a rapidly escalating war against our law enforcement agencies for a decade now.
Ever since Obama launched violent, Marxist, deceptively-named Black Lives Matter with increasing slander that painted targets on police backs and led to cops being assaulted, killed, and pilloried by a corrupt justice system, it's only gotten worse.
Then Antifa's Arkham Asylum-escapee brownshirts got involved and beat cops were pressed into riot squads while precincts burned to the ground.
