"all code is ideology solidified into action" most codeing pushes right wing agenda, this can often seen in the site T&S and in the content that makes it to the front pages. Am curious how hard coded this is, and how much is soft social use.
@Hamishcampbell Joseph Weisenbaum also thought that the computing industry was inherently conservative. Computing at scale is capital intensive. People with a lot of money to invest in software R&D tend to be the ruling class. The types of people who get computer science degrees in ivy league universities tend not to be radicals and tend to be from very rich families.
@bob @bhaugen "people who get computer science degrees from ivy league universities" (or even "people who get computer science degrees") doesn't make up all software people though
