I used to read this column in Byte magazine, delivered to my door each month from 1981 until they ceased printing. It was, by far, the most respected computer magazine of its time.
Jerry is a science fiction writer, and his books, especially the ones he co-authored with Niven, are great reads.
He leans consistently conservative.
Loved his books (and Byte) but had no idea of his politics. Good on him!
I had no idea he was conservative. As I recall, “The View from Chaos Manor” was the name of his monthly column, wasn’t it?
Jerry is pretty much the only person who was against going into Iraq from the beginning, that I respect for. And I have enormous respect for him.
I’ve been reading his “day book” at that site for years. That site was arguably the first blog. Highly recommended.
