My wife doesn’t really like linux, she’ll happily use it, but to be honest she’d rather use windows, now this isn’t a problem for me as i do, but it got me to thinking….so i’m currently reading this, perhaps you should too?
It’s also been Ada Lovelace Day, named for the world’s first computer programmer, Ada Lovelace. It’s interesting to me that while the first programmer was a woman, and all of the ENIAC programmers were women, there are so many more men than women in technology fields nowadays. Ada Lovelace Day is a day to highlight women who rock in the tech world. Since here in FOSS-land, the FLOSSPOLS survey reports that only 2% of developers are women, compared to 28% in the commercial sector, now i’m not going to write about a particular woman, but here is a list of women’s blogs I read quite often in no particular order
Mackenzie Morgan
Emma Jane Hogbin
Celeste Lyn Paul
Elizabeth Krumbach
Miia Ranta
Pia Waugh

There’s Val Aurora (née Henson) too. I just discovered her blog; previously I’ve only known her from her in-depth articles in LWN.
Thanks for the mention
And Valerie Aurora is who I chose for Ada Lovelace Day. She’s amazing and the reason I got interested in the kernel.
