I like to compare it to public art or a public art museum. One entity paid for it but everyone is allowed to look at it and take pictures of it. Not quite the same since public art is typically a physical object and not a digital one.
It seems that the decrease in women programmers seems to have started around the point where PC's supplanted mainframes. PC's were regarded as a toy by the established IT departments perhaps. I wonder if there is some correlation?
I got a computer TI-994A because I was curious about programming due to those old Radio Shack comic books that showed what computers could do.
This is great. I want to find a reason to use this. I have been doing some retro looking visualizations on an oscilloscope lately. I need to learn more about programming vectors to sound frequencies.
