She was one of the people who literally built the technical foundation of the world we know. That alone justifies all the upvotes. The fact that she did that on top of basically starting life over at 30 due to the constraints around transition at that time? That's winning a marathon with a cinder block chained to your ankle. As far as the concentration of trans people in computing, AFAIK there are two predominant theories: First, survivorship bias involving careers that are often non-customer-facing and well-paying. Second, that there's common cause or comorbidity with other developmental differences (like ASD or 2SD+ IQ) that are unusually common among people who end up in computing.
