"If people aren’t allowed to write a thought-provoking memo in a polite manner questioning corporate policies without being fired, we’ve lost an essential component to any halfway decent civilization - the ability to have a conversation without name calling and career destruction. If we’ve truly lost that, we are doomed."

Hacker of the week:
JAMES DAMORE

(Hackers are the drummers in our band; humanity makes music, but we can't play together without them. Drummers are uber-conscientious. When we've practiced enough, they can get a day off.)

Damore: "I'm not sure how they can expect to silence so many engineers and intelligent people and just deny science like this."

Blessing of the digital warrior:

"Dear Lord, please bless James Damore. Give him courage and wisdom, as he faces the wolves for You and me. Give him provision and strength and comrades. Give him peace and love and opportunity. I ask the same blessing over every other hacker who may be tempted to speak Truth to power. Tempt them some more. Thank you. Amen. From Linda."
