From: Martin Krischik on 30 Apr 2007 12:44 Hello. I dug out all Ada and Lovelace related articles at digg: http://digg.com/programming/Hibachi_The_Eclipse_Ada_Development_Tools_Project http://digg.com/programming/Programming_Pioneer_Dies http://digg.com/programming/Ada_Byron_Lovelace_First_Female_To_Understand_Computers http://digg.com/programming/Ada_Development_Tools_for_Eclipse http://digg.com/programming/Lady_Lovelace:_your_computer_has_a_lot_to_thanks_this_lady_for http://digg.com/linux_unix/Linux_flies_with_real-time_Ada_apps_on_Euro_UAVs I think the last one is especially interesting! If enough of us digg as well we might get a story to the front page. Martin -- mailto://krischik(a)users.sourceforge.net Ada programming at: http://ada.krischik.com

While technically correct, it implies that women were technically behind men. She was the first programmer (period), and just happens to be female. -- PM instructions: do a C4esar Ciph3r on my address; retain punctuation.

Digg has been criticised for a certain misogynistic culture. |
