A better title: "Whitehouse gives up on making coders dress like politicians"
- mikeash 12y agoI thought the story at the end was interesting, where Obama points out the suit-wearing techie and he replies, "This is literally only because you’re here." What happens if you're invited to a meeting with the President and you don't wear a suit?
- bertil 12y agoThere is enough campaign photos with that situation to say that the President doesn't care, and has too packed a schedule to focus on anything but getting the job done. The issue with 'nerds' is far more likely to be verbal communication ("What is a 'normalisation of a database'?") then puns on their t-shirt.
