This IBM is still weird to me.

I remember an IBM that was a bunch of stodgy old guys who wore suits every day. And that's everybody, even the guy they sent to crawl into the mainframe was going to show up wearing a dark suit and white shirt.

Age discrimination at IBM was against the young, not the old. People retired from IBM and got pensions.

Now they're just full of young idiots.
