How about - Ada Lovelace, the world's first computer programmer.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_Lovelace

The computer language Ada is named after her.

>>57942711
I'd buy anything she was selling

>>57942725
Her only significant contribution was as a "debugger".

(You)

>>57943135
Inventing the compiler is insignificant?

>>57942756
this is the correct answer.
Grace Hopper and Ada Lovelace may have been great, but they're only important historically.

> All but one of the programs cited in her notes had been prepared by Babbage from three to seven years earlier. The exception was prepared by Babbage for her, although she did detect a 'bug' in it. Not only is there no evidence that Ada ever prepared a program for the Analytical Engine, but her correspondence with Babbage shows that she did not have the knowledge to do so.

Grete Hermann on the other hand was the real deal. Her thesis was the foundation for computerized algebra.

>women can't code wahhhh

>>57944948
I wonder if this willful ignorance is simply ironic at this point.

Someone photoshopped Daniel Radcliffe's face onto that picture of a data clerk standing next to 15 binders full of program output.

>>57944976

explain your problem with the photo. she wrote a bunch of code. perhaps not all of it was directly her's. but what's your beef exactly?

>>57944985
Stop attempting to rewrite history by mindlessly parroting feminist rhetoric.
Those are all binders full of program output and not code.

>>57944985
She was a team leader and didn't program anything at all.

i'm from poorland and i've never heard of her

>>57945083
She was an MIT prof, the team leader, and the main system architect. Go be angsty somewhere else.

>>57945365
So you admit she didn't program then. Way to prove yourself wrong.
