@elfary74 @washingtonpost I recently learned that the Apollo 11 onboard computer was one of the first to use integrated circuits (chips) and that it was much less powerful than the first IBM PC. It weighed 70 pounds and input was via a numeric pad with huge buttons. https://t.co/Bx0ZS9IQlY — PolitiTweet.org

@ahrensf @washingtonpost I watched it with family on a small boat off the coast of Massachusetts. It was like witnessing a combination of history and magic. — PolitiTweet.org

The @washingtonpost has a special section today recalling the first manned moon landing 50 years ago next month. It includes reprints of 6 front pages from the week of the mission, which I remember well. It’s easy to forget that the return was almost as daring as the landing. https://t.co/ZmUOcHPIWF — PolitiTweet.org

@reckless You’re right. And you know I’ve been complaining against the size and power of the tech oligopoly for years. That’s why I said the UCG platforms are 90% of the problem, not 100%. https://t.co/kThGR9oY93 — PolitiTweet.org
Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg
@reckless This is a hugely important point. The “techlash”, and the government investigations, are 90% about platforms that propagate user generated content. They are not about most tech products or services. Nobody is investigating Microsoft Excel, AirPods, or Zoom. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s always valuable listening to my friend @inafried on almost any issue. I’ve been doing it for years. But this LinkedIn video on how she came out is especially important and worth your time. https://t.co/7E1nMnT2BJ — PolitiTweet.org

No president, including the founders, has been happy with press coverage he considered unfair or wrong. We even once had a sedition law, briefly. But President Trump’s attacks on the free press, especially the New York Times, accusing it of treason, are a new level of danger. — PolitiTweet.org

@MarkSoFla You’re right. And I strongly doubt A.I. is the solution. It’s time for fierce regulation. And maybe a breakup. The current product is a cancer on society. — PolitiTweet.org

If you’re still on @facebook, you must read today’s tremendous @verge story by @CaseyNewton on content moderators. It raises troubling questions about Facebook & the contractor economy. Casey and The Verge deserve awards for this. https://t.co/PAF1Y5hvAu — PolitiTweet.org

@backlon Dieter, I too am fine with gadgets. I am, however,baffled by the heaps of unused, but personally purchased, laptops, phones, iPods, KIndles, Bluetooth speakers, digital cameras, cables and accessories that I swear I’m going to clean out before I die. But I really need the Oasis. — PolitiTweet.org

@dannyackerman There have been other modern presidents, of both parties. To define the presidency via Trump is like defining all films through the worst one you’ve ever seen. Real staffers from White Houses of both parties helped write The West Wing. It has fantasy, but it’s not “pure fantasy”. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg
Once in a while, I find it immensely satisfying to turn off the real world for 42 minutes and re-watch an episode of “The West Wing”. Tonight I watched “In the Shadow of Two Gunmen, Part II.” Brilliant. Sure, it’s partly a fantasy. But, man, it’s good. https://t.co/gV4QUjqAhz — PolitiTweet.org

It’s great that among the firms joining ethically blind @facebook in building a currency is ethically blind @Uber. And yes, I know that it has been turned over to people who better follow rules and norms. But the founder who ignored them sits on the board, loaded with shares. — PolitiTweet.org
