Meet Ada Lovelace, the world's first computer programmer! ?? In the 1800s, Ada wrote the first algorithm designed for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine. She envisioned the machine's potential beyond mere calculations, paving the way for modern computing. She is considered the mother of computing! Stay tuned on our page to learn about important women in technology and STEM! If you would like to learn more about someone, let us know and we'll share more?? #WomenInTech #AdaLovelace #STEMHeroes

Happy Ada Lovelace Day, my fellow Women in STEM! ????????? ?? "Imagination is the Discovering Faculty, pre-eminently. It is that which penetrates into the unseen worlds around us, the worlds of Science." - Ada Lovelace ? Lovelace’s words remind us how crucial creativity is to scientific progress. From her groundbreaking work in the 19th century to Karen Sp?rck Jones’s contributions in the 20th, women have always led the way in computer science. ? Sp?rck Jones’s development of Inverse Document Frequency (IDF) (good old TF-IDF, a classic in our field!) transformed how we search for information, laying the foundation for modern search engines. ?? As she wisely said, "I think it is very important to get more women into computing. My slogan is: Computing is too important to be left to men."

As technology continues to shape society, it’s essential for tech leaders to recognize their role in strengthening democracy. This report highlights the urgent need to integrate civic knowledge and responsibility into STEM education and careers.?

Check out this spotlight on the Responsible Computing for Just Futures Initiative (RC4JustFutures), which highlights the "importance that justice and community equity" be considered in the development and implementation of technology.

?? Celebrating the Legacy of Ada Lovelace: The First Computer Programmer ?? In the world of technology, Ada Lovelace stands out as a true pioneer. Born in 1815, she became the world’s first computer programmer by writing an algorithm for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine—long before the first computer was even built. But Ada’s genius didn’t stop there. She was a visionary who saw the potential for computers to go beyond mere calculations, predicting they could one day create art, music, and more. Her ability to blend creativity with logic has inspired countless innovators in tech and beyond. Today, we honor Ada Lovelace not just as a mathematician, but as a symbol of innovation, curiosity, and the power of imagination. Her legacy reminds us that the future belongs to those who dare to dream big and think differently. ?? Let's continue to draw inspiration from her work as we push the boundaries of what's possible in technology and beyond. #AdaLovelace #STEM #Innovation #TechPioneers #WomenInTech #LegacyOfGenius #FutureOfTech ?? Invest in your ideas, because the future is shaped by visionaries like Ada who saw what others couldn't.

Over the past few days, I’ve been exploring the BASIC language, and today I learned that Thomas E. Kurtz, its co-creator, passed away at 96. BASIC revolutionized computing by making programming accessible to all, inspiring countless innovators. Kurtz’s vision of democratizing technology will forever remain a cornerstone in the history of computing. RIP Thomas E. Kurtz, and thank you for empowering generations to code. #ProgrammingHistory #BASICLanguage #ThomasKurtz #TechLegacy

Visiting the #LibraryOfCongress offers an invaluable opportunity for those in computer science to reflect on the intersection of technology and civic engagement. The exhibit highlights how advancements in science and technology have historically shaped democratic participation and public discourse. For computer scientists, this connection is crucial, as it sheds light on how technology can be leveraged to strengthen democratic institutions and promote equitable civic engagement. One of the most compelling aspects of the exhibit is its exploration of the role of innovation in empowering citizens, providing tools for greater participation in governance, and fostering social change. As computer scientists, we often develop technologies that can either reinforce or challenge societal systems. The exhibit prompts reflection on how our work—whether through software, data, or algorithms—can influence civic participation, encouraging us to develop ethical, accessible, and inclusive technologies that support the principles of democracy. This aligns with the values of the #EndTheException campaign, which focuses on restoring trust in public leadership and encouraging non-partisan, community-driven action. By emphasizing the importance of ethical engagement, the library encourages visitors to consider how their work can contribute to social justice and inspire collective action, making it a must-visit for anyone in the field of technology or civic advocacy.

?? #TechInnovatorSpotlight: Frances Allen ?? This week, we honor a groundbreaking figure in computer science - Frances Allen, the first woman to win the Turing Award. Her pioneering work in compiler optimization and parallel computing has fundamentally shaped modern computing, embodying the innovative and transformative spirit we uphold at ITCubed. ??? Allen's contributions to optimizing computer programs have made software more efficient and powerful, directly impacting the way we develop IT solutions today. Her work is a testament to the importance of smart, efficient technology - a principle at the core of ITCubed's services. ? Inspired by Frances Allen's legacy, ITCubed continues to innovate in IT strategy, security management, and support, ensuring our solutions not only meet current business needs but also drive future advancements. ???? As we reflect on the monumental impact of Frances Allen's work, we are motivated to push the boundaries of what's possible in the realm of IT, just as she did throughout her illustrious career. #ITCubed #FrancesAllen #TuringAward #Innovation #CompilerOptimization
