There are great essays on the topic, but basically - they were kicked out when the position started to earn money for the business. Programmed Inequality by Marie Hicks [0] is a great introduction to some of the history. As my mother was a software engineer in the 70s, it's so incredibly upsetting to hear folks describe how it's just an inherently male…
除了这里列出的好书之外，还有几本可能大家会感兴趣：- George Dyson 写的《Turing’s Cathedral》 - Charlton McIlwain 写的《Black Software》 - Mar Hicks 写的《Programmed Inequality》。Dyson 那本书严谨且深入地挖掘了数字计算在哲学和实践层面的起源，写得非常棒。另外两本也同样精彩深刻，不过……
In addition to the great books listed here, a few more that might be of interest: - Turing’s Cathedral, by George Dyson - Black Software, by Charlton McIlwain - Programmed Inequality, by Mar Hicks The Dyson book is a rigorous and deep historical dive into the philosophical and practical origins of digital computing, and is really great. The other two are equally great and deep but…
Mar Hicks 写的《Programmed Inequality》，https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/programmed-inequality 讲述了英国女性从事编程的历史，以及她们后来是如何被这个行业抛弃的。
Programmed Inequality by Mar Hicks, https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/programmed-inequality On the history of women in programming in Britain and how they got discarded from the profession.
有本小册子涵盖了英国计算史的这段时期：Mar Hicks 写的《Programmed Inequality: How Britain Discarded Women Technologists and Lost Its Edge in Computing》。虽然书名听起来像社会学，但它其实更偏向历史。里面有一些来自女性的有趣轶事……
There's a short book that covers this period of British computing history: Programmed Inequality: How Britain Discarded Women Technologists and Lost Its Edge in Computing, by Mar Hicks. It's more history than sociology, though the title suggests otherwise. There are interesting anecdotes from women…
想进一步了解英国计算机产业，以及为何它在1940年代中期明明处于世界领先地位最终却失败了，可以看看 Marie Hicks 的《Programmed Inequality》。它是著名的 MIT 计算机历史系列丛书之一。https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/programmed-inequality
For more on the British computer industry and why it was a failure despite being world-leading in the mid-1940s, see Marie Hicks' "Programmed Inequality". It's part of the venerable MIT Computer History series. https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/programmed-inequality
关于这个话题有很棒的文章，但大体上就是——一旦这个岗位开始给企业挣钱了，她们就被扫地出门了。Marie Hicks 写的《Programmed Inequality》[0] 很好地介绍了其中一部分历史。我母亲在70年代就是一名软件工程师，所以听到有人说这行天生就属于男性……
