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.

I oppose:
* Slavery
* The Holocaust
* Repression
* Theocracy
I also oppose:
* Diversity
* Socialism
* Equality
...for the same reason: they create bad results, therefore are destructive to our future.

Bill Gates funded the development of a technology that stores vaccine information under your skin. He was also one of the founding members of the WEF's ID-2020 program that launched in 2018. Take a look at all the aspects of your life these "experts" intend to tie to this id. https://news.mit.edu/2019/storing-vaccine-history-skin-1218
