I've noticed lately a number of people trying to write men completely out of the history of computing. Does anyone understand the thinking here?
Everyone should know about Ada Lovelace and Grace Hopper, and it is interesting to learn more about how many women were involved in the early practical aspects of the field. But "province of women"? Turing? Hamming? Perlis? Dijkstra? Knuth? McCarthy?
I'm guessing they don't understand the difference between front-end coding and front-end designing.
There ARE more women in UI and UX design. But I haven't seen a significant difference in the sex ratios of Angular/React vs. Python developers. It's mostly men across both.
