Interesting and very thought provoking musings...

I began computing in the 1950's with hand-wired perf-board multi-gang switches. I hack, or at the very least, "yank the skins" on pretty much everything that I own.

There are still some kids around, growing up, who have that indomitable gene within them, the drive to tear things apart and understand how they work. I try to encourage them when I find them.

One of my hopes for the future of freedom and privacy is in the open source movement coupled with blockchain based distributed cooperative entities.

I just "discovered" you today, courtesy of @alexbeyman, and am following you now hoping that you'll keep posting good stuff... Thanks! 😄😇😄
