I don't know about the naming, but yes, most of the original "programmers" came from the secretarial pool and started out as the "human computers" doing what was considered boring work. Also because much of the innovation happened during the war there were fewer men available. They went from doing calculations by hand to doing them on the machines.
I'd add Admiral Grace Hopper for her contributions to Computer Science. In short, there are plenty of women who have made contributions to the field. Too bad most of these chuckle clowns don't want to look hard enough because it might ruin their narrative.Late, but basically. What makes it even funnier is that coding wasn't just done by women. It was invented by them, too, and so were a few crucial other parts of how modern technology even works.
@Blue Miaplacidus gave a great time line summary in this earlier post. I'm not sure how much of a nuisance LFJ was after bouncing and squeaking over our coverage of TLL and the subsequent complaint(s) sent to the e-mail provider. However, they largely stayed off the radar until the recent DKF crusade.Six years? Nigger, SIX YEARS?! Most people didn't know who you were SIX MONTHS ago, and most probably didn't care until about SIX WEEKS ago when you started trying nigger censorship shit. Fuck you.
Everyone uses that chick as cope for female coders and it reminds me of the all female engineer team that was heavily and annoyingly talked about that made that one bridge that quickly collapsed in on itselfLate, but basically. What makes it even funnier is that coding wasn't just done by women. It was invented by them, too, and so were a few crucial other parts of how modern technology even works.
A woman named Ada Lovelace invented coding all the way back in the 1840s (yes, really).
A woman Hedy Lamarr invented frequency-hopping which is one of the main reasons we even have Wi-Fi today.
And a woman named Margaret Hamilton (no, not the lady who played the evil witch in The Wizard of Oz. That's a different one.) was the lead programmer for NASA's Apollo guidance programs that ensured that the astronauts could get to, and from the moon safely, even if something went wrong.

And yes, it was done all by hand during the beginning.
Anyone who says women can't code is talking out of their ass.
Don't forget Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, who wrote the first compiler fit for mass use (COBOL), a language still in use today. The idea of computer languages in a human-readable format that could be compiled into machine language was a concept that had been around a while, but when she made it, there were literally people who didn't believe it because she was just this tiny birdlike little lady.Late, but basically.

I wonder if this brony has ever punched anybody, like his name suggests. Imagine being attacked by a brony.
>hashtags up the assI wonder how autistic that Brony is.
Was nobody following before he went private? Or did he successfully purge all the liblarpers with his updated block list?Damn seems like no luck in terms of accessing liz fong jones private twitter yet. I wonder if I should consider setting out a bounty
In the 1970s, Hopper advocated for the Defense Department to replace large, centralized systems with networks of small, distributed computers. Here at Kiwi Farms, we take what actual women say to heart and have distributed our shitposting forum for robustness and to give women a space to talk about people of gender.Don't forget Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, who wrote the first compiler fit for mass use (COBOL), a language still in use today.

The thing about coding is that nobody gives a flying fuck who you are, just whether what you made actually works.
Well yes and no. Most "women in tech" from the early days were average workers who would be lost to history if they were men, invented something years late/made a minor improvement to something, or their stories were completely made up to bolster feminist propaganda.Late, but basically.

Hedy Lamarr invented something that already existed:In 1840, Babbage was invited to give a seminar at the University of Turin about his Analytical Engine. Luigi Menabrea, a young Italian engineer and the future Prime Minister of Italy, transcribed Babbage's lecture into French, and this transcript was subsequently published in the Bibliothèque universelle de Genève in October 1842. Babbage's friend Charles Wheatstone commissioned Ada Lovelace to translate Menabrea's paper into English. She then augmented the paper with notes, which were added to the translation. Ada Lovelace spent the better part of a year doing this, assisted with input from Babbage. These notes, which are more extensive than Menabrea's paper, were then published in the September 1843 edition of Taylor's Scientific Memoirs under the initialism AAL.
Ada Lovelace's notes were labelled alphabetically from A to G. In note G, she describes an algorithm for the Analytical Engine to compute Bernoulli numbers. It is considered to be the first published algorithm ever specifically tailored for implementation on a computer, and Ada Lovelace has often been cited as the first computer programmer for this reason. The engine was never completed and so her program was never tested.
Margaret Hamilton was a real programmer, but she wasn't the head of the Apollo Guidance Computer project, or even the head of the software division:In 1899 Guglielmo Marconi experimented with frequency-selective reception in an attempt to minimise interference.
The earliest mentions of frequency hopping in open literature are in US patent 725,605, awarded to Nikola Tesla on March 17, 1903, and in radio pioneer Jonathan Zenneck's book Wireless Telegraphy (German, 1908, English translation McGraw Hill, 1915), although Zenneck writes that Telefunken had already tried it. Nikola Tesla doesn't mention the phrase "frequency hopping" directly, but certainly alludes to it. Entitled Method of Signaling, the patent describes a system that would enable radio communication without any danger of the signals or messages being disturbed, intercepted, interfered with in any way.
The German military made limited use of frequency hopping for communication between fixed command points in World War I to prevent eavesdropping by British forces, who did not have the technology to follow the sequence. Jonathan Zenneck's book Wireless Telegraphy was originally published in German in 1908, but was translated into English in 1915 as the enemy started using frequency hopping on the front line. Zenneck was a German physicist and electrical engineer who had become interested in radio by attending Tesla's lectures on "wireless sciences". Wireless Telegraphy includes a section on frequency hopping, and, as it became a standard text for many years, it probably introduced the technology to a generation of engineers.
A Polish engineer and inventor, Leonard Danilewicz, came up with the idea in 1929. Several other patents were taken out in the 1930s, including one by Willem Broertjes (U.S. Patent 1,869,659, issued Aug. 2, 1932).
During World War II, the US Army Signal Corps was inventing a communication system called SIGSALY, which incorporated spread spectrum in a single frequency context. But SIGSALY was a top-secret communications system, so its existence was not known until the 1980s.
In 1942, actress Hedy Lamarr and composer George Antheil received U.S. Patent 2,292,387 for their "Secret Communications System", an early version of frequency hopping using a piano-roll to switch among 88 frequencies to make radio-guided torpedoes harder for enemies to detect or jam.
The first command module flight was controlled by a software package called CORONA whose development was led by Alex Kosmala. Software for lunar missions consisted of COLOSSUS for the command module, whose development was led by Frederic Martin, and LUMINARY on the lunar module led by George Cherry. Details of these programs were implemented by a team under the direction of Margaret Hamilton. Hamilton was very interested in how the astronauts would interact with the software and predicted the types of errors that could occur due to human error. In total, software development on the project comprised 1400 person-years of effort, with a peak workforce of 350 people.
I consistently think back to that as I remember when talking on the telegram one user said they didnt even follow or reply to him and he already had them blocked. But considering he has 47k followers Its really hard to think even if he is extremely autistic that he checked over every single user that follows himWas nobody following before he went private? Or did he successfully purge all the liblarpers with his updated block list?
Lol it's a fucking trollSomeone claiming to be from Terrahost is currently in his IRC.
