Happy Ada Lovelace Day!

It's Ada Lovelace Day! Dedicated to those amazing women making headway in the various fields of technology, which before our wonderful post-modern age was consider to be a male-only field, and is still in many ways uneven playing ground!

I'll be updating this post throughout the day with links related to Ada Lovelace Day, and feel free to drop your own links here!

To start, Sydney Padua's amazing 2D Goggles contribution! That single-panel pun kills me. She also has a more professional post, in which she shares this rejection letter from Disney in 1938, part of which reads:

“Women do not do any of the creative work in connection with preparing the cartoons for the screen, as this work is done entirely by young men."

FWD has an amazing link roundup of Women Who Invented Stuff Relevant to the Interests of Some People With Disabilities.
