Wonderful thought and flow of discourse in your article. For me, it is like a good pasta and red wine among debate-fueled friends. Medium needs more of this, a lot more.

As an aside, and as others have pointed out, the true 'soul' of computer advancement - the programmer and developer of early algorithms was Ada Lovelace or Ada Byron. One of our greatest romantic minds fathered a child, propelled by a visionary mother, to establish the tool with which we survive today and on which we have the pleasure of your article.

Bravo from Ada to Shannon
