Grace Hopper - the woman that coined the term “bug”
Grace Hopper did more than coin the term “bug”. She invented the first program linker in the early 1950s, for the UNIVAC I. A program linker translates instructions from one language to another (for example, numerical codes that represent instructions translated to machine code that computers can read), which is the very foundation of how computer’s operate independently. she also pulled a steve rogers and tried to enlist in the military a bunch of times and was denied. then, an exception was made for her when she joined the navy reserves, and she ended up serving for over 40 years (half of which was active duty). she retired from the navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper. she was born in NYC in 1906. Grace Hopper was a fucking badass.
also computing was typically a job for women (many of whom were black women that made incredible contributions) back in the day, so it’s absolutely fucking wild that straight white men think they are the foundation of computer innovation. men PUSHED women out and took the credit.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
Adding Wendy Carlos to the list! Trans icon and pioneer of synthesized music!!
Also, just about every computerized device outside of desktops is running ARM chips now. Your phone, your keyboard, your car, your watch. Basically everything.
And ARM was primarily designed by Sophie Wilson, a trans woman.
Computers were made by girls and gays, and you can die mad about it ❤️

feel like ppl are getting meaner and it’s weird to see
how do you mean
bro forget this post for a second - i opened this app today at 9am and the first post i saw was you reblogging some horny shit about “sliding in and stretching her real good”. 9am on a wednesday. what was that all about?
When you feel the Mania coming but you haven’t yet figured out if it’s the Good mania or the Bad mania so your just vibrating like a bumble ball until the pendulum halts
update: I fear it may be the Bad mania bc I cannot finish my breakfast from the sheer anxious nausea whoop
I think that if they wanted to add a third stage to the Pawniard -> Bisharp evolution they should’ve gone a different direction than making them become a king, they should’ve made Bisharp evolve into the chess piece that is a direct upgrade from a bishop: a queen. Plus then she’d be a woman and that’s sooo much better
imagine trying to shame someone for saying hi then posting it online like its a gotcha. Hope that 41 year old king found better hole that appreciates his young mind

“Choosing not to work is morally wrong. Being too disabled to work is fine though.”
Okay, now how do you dictate who is disabled enough not to work? This is a major part of how systemic ableism happens.
Think for a second.
Think.
90% of disabilities are invisible. Those with power able to determine if we’re fucked up enough to be unable to work are often ableists. They rarely give a flying fuck about us and would rather we were no longer a “burden” in order to make space for someone willing and able to work.
Landlords are evil, we know this, but how tf can you look at someone and decide they’re opting to just not work? Do you consider the retired to be lazy because they’re not working? My disabilities ate invisible until they’re not, and it took going to court in order to get on SSDI. Because of dumbfuck ableists like you, I have to deal with other dumbfuck ableists telling me I’m evil/lazy/faking it and therefore I’m the evil category.
Kindly take a few seats and sit your dumbass down. You’re making an annoying fool of yourself with this noise.
Landlords aren’t evil because they ‘don’t work’, landlords are evil because they hoard homes, force us to pay for housing and create homelessness.
CEOs aren’t evil because they ‘don’t work’, CEOs are even because they extract profit from what others create (which is wage theft) and force us to do their bidding or get fired, which creates poverty.
Their power and parasitic nature is the problem. Whether they work is irrelevant.
Get this ridiculous ‘work as morally good’ shit out of your system or sooner or later you will find yourself believing some fucked up bullshit.
