That's a lie. She admits she doesn't know shit I her letters to Babbage

The worlds first programmer also had imposter syndrome.

There were no computer in the 1800's so she can't be the first computer programmer. Thus is such an idiotic statement.

Yeah, makes me feel smug and cheers me up when I feel sluggish. A woman was the first programmer, a trans woman invented the synthesizer, a lot of important steps in tech history were invented by women and only attributed to men due to managerial position. It's women's work, no matter how much men try to revise history to say otherwise, we'll always know.

>Recently ever more scientific historians have dismissed any sentimental view of Lovelace and have aligned themselves with a far more critical way of thinking. Computer historian Dr Allan Bromley told Salon: “All of her programs cited in her notes had been prepared by Babbage three to seven years earlier.” Bruce Collier in his Harvard PhD dissertation on Babbage condemns Lovelace as ”the most overrated figure in the history of computing”; New Yorker journalist Jim Holt claims that Lovelace: “Had a shaky command of elementary algebra”; while perhaps most damningly, author Dorothy Stein argues: “The IT industry uses Ada as a kind of mascot to disguise what is really a bad situation for women in the field.”
