You are naming anecdotes (really just one that is relevant to the era of history in question) involving individual people, while the writer is pointing out more general trends. I'm going to sympathize with author.
- gigglesfact 12y agoIs that why the same few programmer women are mentioned in these discussions? It seems really simple to me: where are all the programming languages designed by women? Why is open source 95-98% men? This does not match gender in CS or IT at all. Answer: because women as a group are overwhelmingly not interested in it. The patriarchy isn't telling the men to clock 80 hour weeks or selflessly maintain repos through the night. So why don't the women do it at any level close to men? Almost 10 years since FLOSSPOLS showed this massive imbalance. Feminists still in denial.
