(4,775 posts)I'm sure you could learn to program if you put your mind to it, considering those other things you've learned. Not sure why you'd want to, though, coding is tedious work, though there is/can be a creative aspect to it.
I've been around a long time too, started programming on mainframe computers before PC's even existed.
I love tubes, use them in my guitar amplifiers. Any simple advice on how to get up to speed on electronics to the point that I can do simple diagnostics and repairs on my tube guitar amplifiers? Pretty off-topic here, but you sound like you might be the right person to ask. Take it to my mailbox if you want.
Back to the OP and thread, I think people are putting all of these expectations on Anonymous and using seemingly arbitrary criteria for evaluation of this communication's authenticity mostly due to their own predisposition to dismiss anything that sounds conspiratorial, such as hackers in the background protecting us from electoral fraud. They seem to need to believe that their own hard work, and that of other Democrats, was all that was needed to win in 2012. I understand that sentiment, but that doesn't make it true. We should keep open minds and try to get to the bottom of this, future elections may depend on it.
