I agree. The Tech sector has become too powerful, and too singular in political leaning.
Like a free press, today's communication channels need to be free and open.
The monopolies must be brok…

Bernie almost ran a good grass roots campaign in 2016. (Funded by $27 donations). But of course Big-Bucks Clinton controlled the DNC and cheated that race. Trump actually spent less than his compe…

Yes, I agree.

Yeah, Silicon Valley overstepped. It'd due for some reigning-in.

It'd be better if it showed the same topic, presented by left and right. As done by 'RealClearPolitics'. One topic, two articles, one pro and one con.

I like it.
Of course, I'm an older programmer. But still.

<Yawn> Time to move on.

I mis-read the question. I thought you were asking who has been programming for 30 years, not who was older than 30. I'm 52 and have been at it professionally for 27 years. I still think it…
