Wow - these are wonderful comments everyone - even the ones I don't agree with all that much. This post has had almost 4000 views since this morning - that is huge for me. The point I really want to drive home here though, is that even if you think there are "issues" with older workers, do you also believe these companies should be suppressing this data? As I said, it seems to me to be too much of a coincidence that three different tech companies would independently decide to leave this data out, unless they were hiding something. I think "transparency" is a base value among members of Hacker News, and I appreciate the support I have gotten for writing this.
