Thinking about HCF, they did a better than average job of showing Women in Tech. I worked at IBM and DEC in the 80s and maybe as many as one third of Programmer / Analyst positions were held by women. IIRC, 1985 was the peak at IBM and it started falling after that. But my memory was female software engineers did not seem as much an endangered species as they do now. All of the characters had flaws, but I appreciated the representation. Though I suspect the flaws were added for dramatic effect. Perfect people doing perfect things doesn't make for drama. |
