This Ada Lovelace Day on October 7, share your story about a woman — whether an engineer, a scientist, a technologist or mathematician — who has inspired you to become who you are today. Write a blog post, record a podcast, film a video, draw a comic, or pick any other way to talk about the women who have been guiding lights in your life. Give your heroine the credit she deserves!
There are still a few days for everybody to think about ways they might want to contribute to Ada Lovelace Day; I already have a blog post lined up (in my head, that is...), and of course, the more the merrier! It would be great if we had many blog posts and other internet manifestations on inspiring female role models. And while the Ada Lovelace Day focuses specifically on 'techy' areas, given the poor gender balance in philosophy, it is clear that inspiring female figures in philosophy should also be part of the initiative, so let's talk about them too!
On the thread I'll open on Friday, I will also suggest that people put links of their contributions to Ada Lovelace Day in the comments section. Let's get rocking, people!
