Hosted By

Ralph Yozzo, GDG Organizer

Google Developer Organizer since 2009.

Google developer group organizer, NYC Community Education Council Member, Computer Developer of Transparency applications, Dems committee former blue check.

Developer of open government information sites such as https://prop.tidalforce.org/

Ralph was born in the computer age and grew up with a computer keyboard attached to his fingers. Ralph wrote one video game using a Radio Shack and a cassette tape drive and never wrote another game. The reason is that games are simply random number generated worlds that are a waste of the player's time.

Ralph continued to love computer programming to this day, many decades later. After careers at IBM, Goldman Sachs (criminals), NYNEX / Verizon, Consolidated Edison, many small startup etc. and then some finance / computer companies and some non profit companies (some of the most wasteful companies are non profits).

If you want to hear the truth about the industry go to https://www.youtube.com/@RalphYozzo and contact me via twitter at https://twitter.com/fedex1

Ralph was blessed to be born near the Cuban Missile Crisis (when humanity was near the brink of self destruction) and then near Ralph's 50th year New York City was brought to it's knees when Hurricane Sandy showed New York City who is in control.
