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.

Whomever the "person of interest"... or "suspect"... or terrorist ends up being will say A LOT about the design and motives behind this horrific terror attack in Waukesha.
We will soon know the narrative they are spelling out for us.
These terror events are meant to SHOCK us... meant to paralyze us...

Reporter on CNN reporting that this was not a targeted attack. It was just a horrible accident. Driver likely accidentally accelerated. Thru a crowd? For 50+ yards? Then having the presence of mind to BACK the vehicle into a driveway? Yeah... not buying this schiz.
Yeah.
Everything is just going to keep getting worse.

If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.

If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me.

Dr. Anthony Fauci recommends boosters for everyone over 18 because "no vaccine lasts forever." And by "forever," he apparently means 6 months, give or take. You know, like all the other vaccines that only last 6 months ... 🤣🤣 🤡https://twitter.com/SKMorefield/status/1462514295506456582

Congress is debating a bill that is supposed to help online speech by targeting platforms' algorithms, but will actually end up harming it. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/11/lawmakers-choose-wrong-path-again-new-anti-algorithm-bill

Johns Hopkins Prof Announces New Covid Study That Will Force the CDC & NIH to Stop Ignoring Natural Immunity
A Johns Hopkins professor got tired of watching the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as the National Institutes of Health, proceed with their Covid response policies for two years now as if natural immunity doesn’t exist. Now, Dr. Marty Makary is doing something about it. He is launching his own study.
