GP suggested otherwise. Either way the bit about ethics was the point I'd prefer to discuss

I don't understand how race, gender, and class in particular can possibly be separated out from tech any more so than software patents. A community that has been so obsessed with d…

Looks like you just communicated it in 16 bytes though.

I don't know what Google pays, but I know several interns (including one freshman) working for similarly large companies pulling down $45+/h (Which works out to over $7k/mo before …
