I am not American, but it's difficult to not be aware of the political context in the country right now :)
Does it affect you, your team or your work in any way? I am curious if the social context has an influence on your day-to-day work, especially in this field.
I am a developer at The Washington Post and I help build newsroom facing tools. I also am the Chair of the DC chapter of ACM and produce a podcast called DC Tech Stories.
As a developer - not really, our work is not tied to the news cycle the way teams like the pay wall (when major disasters happen the lift the paywall) or editorial is. I personally am a highly political person so that does come into play with my personal feelings but through the work no..
