My Top 5 Tech Documentaries

I have always enjoyed watching tech documentaries. It's fun to learn about different technologies and the people behind them.

Here is a list of my top 5 favorites (for now) in no particular order:

AlphaGo
A full length documentary about Deepmind's AlphaGo program and how it defeated Go world champion, Lee Sedol.

Revolution OS
A story about the creators of GNU/Linux and the Open Source movement.

The Queen of Code
A short (around 15 minutes) documentary about Grace Hopper.

Silicon Cowboys
A great film about the rise and fall of Compaq.

GraphQL: The Documentary
A mini documentary about the origins of the GraphQL spec.

Do you have a tech documentary that you would recommend?

I recently watched a documentary that I think everyone should see—it's called The IMPACT. This film takes a hard look at the global threats facing humanity today.

This documentary is not just eye-opening; it's crucial for understanding the causal links of world events and what the future holds. By watching "The IMPACT," you’ll see the world as it truly is, stripping away illusions. If you're interested in uncovering the real drivers behind global events, this is a must-watch. It’s not about conspiracy theories; it’s about looking at hard facts and reality. Check it out and prepare to see things in a new light.
