 @w3c I can not really explain it but I derive a lot of joy knowing these people are still alive, and Linus even if he is a bit of a dick, and old men who talk about the early cryptowars It all happened so fast, it makes my mind race and other times the speed is a bit nauseating 6 comments
@silvermoon82 What a wonderful image, I have so many esoteric early computer science images but this one is totally new to me. Thank you so much for sharing that with me; really brings me joy, sincerely.  @ekis @silvermoon82 The fact that its the code for the Apollo Flight computer gives me chills. It is a very weird feeling to have so much emotion tied up into this, but I absolutely do. @ekis @silvermoon82 she's in a Lego set even! https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/women-of-nasa-21312 @petejohanson @silvermoon82 I'm not a fan of lego, just personally, nothing against them. But I was all over that large picture of her as a lego brick set. Saved the larger version of it, and its an awesome picture. Thank you for sharing that. |

Margaret Hamilton, one of the mothers of software engineering and crewed space flight, is also still alive. Can you imagine being in one of their shoes, seeing what's been built, both good and bad, on their work?
Wild to think how quickly we've advanced the technology!
