Instead of writing that more programming languages should have a female perspective why doesn't the author simply write a programming language?
Edit - apparently I can't read (bad habit of skimming long articles and reading the body of the more interesting headers). She did make one - designed to teach children Python. I still think it would be more interesting to write a general purpose language with the values in the essay.

- drivingmenuts 1y agoOK, but if the end goal is to teach Python, isn't the language just Python? I'm not sure I get the point of learning one language to learn another language (unless the point if just to start learning a plethora of languages). At any rate, I wish she'd included some sort of docs to read thru, rather than having to sit thru a bunch of busywork tutorials. I'd like to get an overview of what Hedy is about.
