        For a machine that has still yet to be built... Yeah because that really helped out the world of computer programming. She's an interesting footnote in history to be sure, but let's not pretend she did anything to help us get to where we all are today.

        idk if it's mentioned in the article because I'm just not in the mood to read it right now, but in the 80's the U.S. military experimented with a computer language named in her honor. If that's classified I'll delete this tweet. I'm really sleepy.

        Women are as important as any man in the fields of computing and mathematics as well as science and literature, we are always howver surprised by that fact and should be even more proud as in the main women were not encouraged to be in this sphere of excellence

        This is a outright untruth you are peddling. A classic case, if ever there was, of shameless historical revisionism.

        That's like saying someone was the first pilot because they wrote about flying machines before they existed. Kind of a stretch...
