fun fact: IBM asked for, and got, an exception from that clause.
I guess they'll use JSON when they're building the database to do the next holocaust.
This isn’t talked about enough.
So do I have to look it up now? Ugh, but I am le tired
It’s talked about in this thread. The short version that IBM built a logistics machine for the Nazis that was used to coordinate the transport of supplies for the war effort and transporting people to concentration camps.
TL:DR: IBM sold machines to the Nazis that they used to track down people to put into concentration camps. It would've been harder to do if they had to rely on paper records only.
Jeez, hard to imagine them not having been paper. Sometimes it's easy to forget. Kind of like the IRS using computers older than some senators, and that's saying something.
Take ze nap and then fire ze missiles!
Did they reveal what the evil task they were using it for was?
They make chips for missiles.
Knowing IBM, probably something to do with Nazis
Probably inflicting Websphere on some company.
Weblogic
Well, IIRC they did work with the Nazis to manage concentration camps and more

I remember when he told that story, it was something like this: one company which I don't want to name, so will just say it's initials - IBM. He also authorised usage for IBM "and it's minions".
Source?
I binged this with “ibm json evil”: https://gist.github.com/kemitchell/fdc179d60dc88f0c9b76e5d38fe47076
Binged (the search engine) and binged (the eating disorder/content consumption method) look identical and this fucks me up.
Homographs are wild. I wish I could be around in a thousand years when scholars are arguing over interpretations of every day English sentences; especially idioms.
That's what Binging with Babish ran into early on I believe. Not sure he is still around, his early stuff was fun though
man we programmers can be so naive sometimes
