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.

@amerika If certain groups of people have an uncontrollable natural reflex to drive through crowds of children then maybe it should be illegal for them to operate a vehicle.
@mrmcmayhem@noagendasocial.com They're probably really doing it for employee retention. Having people work on Thanksgiving is kind of awful.

Official spin: this wasn't terrorism, he was fleeing pursuit... through a parade of children.

So now that it seems increasingly likely that they've inspired a terroristic hate crime that left dozens injured and several dead, the liars in the media are spinning it as an accident, or a '"mass casualty incident".
As much as idiot communists in the press and the government like to fantasize about racially-motivated domestic terrorism, they sure are silent when it actually happens.
Journalism is dead. Sadly, fake journalists are very much alive.

>The longer the MSM goes without mentioning the race of a criminal, the more likely they're black.
In this case it was a racially motivated attack by a black rapper.

Another day, another exciting diversity "car of peace" attack, showing us just how diversity will never do anything but destroy us.

idk if it's just voting. Voting didn't save us here. What saved us was the constitution and justice system and likely at least to some degree the gun owners.

Terry is one of those cases where you have someone very intelligent speaking through some kind of disability that everyone gets distracted by.
It reminds me a bit of one of my math professors who came here from communist China and spoke English *very* poorly. You have to listen carefully and then put all the pieces together to figure out what they're saying.

if it turns out that the black guy hit 30 women killing 5, all white, with his car because of what corporate media said...
...does that mean he was radicalized by them?
if so, does this mean those guys who incited him into a murder spree can be subpeonad via RICO?

AUSTRALIA - The army is now transferring positive Covid cases and contacts in the Northern Territories to ‘Quarantine Camps’ by army truck.
So it wasn’t a conspiracy theory then.
