Why is Congress so clueless about tech? Because they fired all their experts 20 years ago

So is the supreme court, a very small subset. There is no vetting process for getting old. There is one for the Supreme Court.

Is there a particular justice, current or past, that gives you pause on this front? Specific individuals is very much what the SC justices are. Their individual judgement is… well, enshrined into law. So we do choose carefully. I don’t think assuming someone in their 90s is incapable of sound judgement is very helpful, or kind.
