Happy birthday to trailblazing #programmer & #computer scientist, Beatrice “Trixie” Worsley (1921-1972). My #linocut shows Worsley seated at the first computer in Canada, the FERUT (which she named) & a flow diagram of one of her programs.⁠
⁠
Trixie Worsley earned one of the first doctorates in computer science anywhere, & was supervised by Douglas Hartree & Alan Turing at Cambridge. Amongst the first computer scientists 🧵

This is very well said. I'm spreading the word. I want to know Freedom before I die. I'm not participating in collective suicide. You should commit suicide individually if you don't heed this.
