00:00.000 --> 00:08.000
Hello, good afternoon everyone.

00:08.000 --> 00:14.000
First of all, you like to apologize for the delay because you have a bit of a technical problem.

00:14.000 --> 00:19.000
But without further ado, we would like to start our next presentation with the public,

00:19.000 --> 00:25.000
where we have the women of sex in the three gone 2.0, which will be brought by Luria Derex.

00:25.000 --> 00:32.000
So without further ado, the stage use yours.

00:32.000 --> 00:36.000
Thank you. It's groovy.

00:36.000 --> 00:38.000
Oh, no, I liked it.

00:38.000 --> 00:42.000
You're not going to like it, but it was fun.

00:42.000 --> 00:45.000
Hi, everyone. Thank you so much for coming today.

00:45.000 --> 00:52.000
Thank you for having me the second year in a room to present another time,

00:52.000 --> 00:58.000
another woman from the computer science history.

00:58.000 --> 01:00.000
So we are a bit late, sorry for that.

01:00.000 --> 01:05.000
My computer is not working anymore, but that bad because I don't know my text,

01:05.000 --> 01:07.000
so it's going to be fast anyway.

01:07.000 --> 01:10.000
I'm kidding.

01:10.000 --> 01:19.000
So this is a bit challenging because this is the second version of my conference of my talk.

01:19.000 --> 01:24.000
It was really a big challenge for me. It was really hard last few months,

01:24.000 --> 01:29.000
so I hope you're going to enjoy it and you're going to discover a new women.

01:29.000 --> 01:32.000
So my name is Luria Derex.

01:32.000 --> 01:34.000
AKA, they've got on the internet.

01:34.000 --> 01:36.000
I'm a first-class developer.

01:36.000 --> 01:41.000
I want some medals, and I'm also a streamer on Twitch about coding and technology.

01:41.000 --> 01:46.000
So this is now the most difficult part and technical part of the conference.

01:46.000 --> 01:51.000
So on the social networks, Twitch is there to go with one on the score.

01:51.000 --> 01:55.000
On Twitter is two on the score and on Instagram is three on the score.

01:55.000 --> 02:00.000
I love to do this joke. I do it every time.

02:00.000 --> 02:03.000
So let's get started.

02:03.000 --> 02:06.000
I want to start by asking you a few questions.

02:06.000 --> 02:10.000
Do you know who invited the compiler?

02:10.000 --> 02:14.000
Normally, if you listen to my last talk, you should know it.

02:14.000 --> 02:21.000
Who invited the assembly languages, who developed the ARM architecture,

02:21.000 --> 02:26.000
and who made the protocol that allowed the worldwide web to exist.

02:26.000 --> 02:32.000
These persons are rarely taught in books and in schools.

02:32.000 --> 02:34.000
Why do they have in common?

02:34.000 --> 02:36.000
They're all women.

02:37.000 --> 02:43.000
In my past talk, I see our way more focused on the 19th century in the beginning of the 20th century.

02:43.000 --> 02:50.000
This time I will focus way more on the 20th, and especially the period between the 50s and the 80s,

02:50.000 --> 02:55.000
which were a really important period for women in computer science.

02:55.000 --> 03:01.000
So I wanted to begin with the question I always get at the end of my conference.

03:01.000 --> 03:06.000
How can we encourage women to be more interested in computer science,

03:06.000 --> 03:10.000
and to feel like they belong in it?

03:10.000 --> 03:16.000
I recently started to read a book called Legal Homsubliye by T.T. LeCoc,

03:16.000 --> 03:22.000
and this book really changed my vision of the world and the history.

03:22.000 --> 03:25.000
Unfortunately, it's only available in French.

03:25.000 --> 03:27.000
I'm really sorry guys.

03:27.000 --> 03:33.000
If you have some references of books talking about the representation of women in the history like in general,

03:33.000 --> 03:37.000
I feel free to let me know, and I would love to read and share them.

03:37.000 --> 03:39.000
Let's go back to the book.

03:39.000 --> 03:47.000
Since the first pages I was hooked and here is the first quote that I stood out to me.

03:47.000 --> 03:50.000
What's the early pre-history?

03:50.000 --> 03:55.000
Imagine it was nothing more than a copy of the social organization than you.

03:55.000 --> 03:59.000
And I think that you begin to understand where I'm going.

03:59.000 --> 04:01.000
This is not a news.

04:01.000 --> 04:04.000
Women are hidden and invisible in the history.

04:04.000 --> 04:08.000
And how do you want someone to feel like they belong in something,

04:08.000 --> 04:14.000
if there's nobody else like them?

04:14.000 --> 04:19.000
So what's young girls today like our representation and role models?

04:19.000 --> 04:25.000
We need to celebrate the women figure.

04:25.000 --> 04:29.000
And I have a little dream and I'm going to talk about that.

04:29.000 --> 04:33.000
Imagine you have a kid and you ask the kid,

04:33.000 --> 04:36.000
now draw me a scientist.

04:36.000 --> 04:39.000
They will surely draw something like this.

04:39.000 --> 04:41.000
Thank you, Dali.

04:41.000 --> 04:45.000
Right? So a white male with blues.

04:45.000 --> 04:47.000
I don't know how to say English.

04:47.000 --> 04:50.000
I think the same word with hair like and stain.

04:50.000 --> 04:55.000
Now imagine that you ask the same kid to draw a computer scientist.

04:55.000 --> 04:57.000
And they draw you something like this.

04:57.000 --> 04:59.000
Would it be amazing?

04:59.000 --> 05:01.000
This is my big dream.

05:01.000 --> 05:03.000
Okay, this is Grace Hopper.

05:03.000 --> 05:05.000
I'm not going to talk about her today.

05:05.000 --> 05:08.000
So I needed to say her name at least once.

05:08.000 --> 05:11.000
It could be any women, but yeah.

05:11.000 --> 05:16.000
So this is what I'm secretly dream of.

05:16.000 --> 05:25.000
So all the young girls that don't have to become a computer scientist or programmer.

05:25.000 --> 05:32.000
But they should feel like they have the option to dream and explore the field that inspire them.

05:32.000 --> 05:37.000
And programming in computer science should feel like natural and accessible options.

05:37.000 --> 05:44.000
So I also started an open source project.

05:44.000 --> 05:46.000
Yeah, open source.

05:46.000 --> 05:47.000
Yeah, sorry.

05:47.000 --> 05:48.000
Cold impacts.

05:48.000 --> 06:01.000
So this is kind of a week like which goal is to try to regroup all the information, all the resources about women and technology in one place.

06:01.000 --> 06:08.000
Because algorithm doesn't help us to find resources about women and technology also.

06:08.000 --> 06:13.000
So if you want to contribute, I don't know if the QR code is big enough.

06:13.000 --> 06:17.000
But if you want to contribute, of course, don't hesitate.

06:17.000 --> 06:22.000
And I also have an issue open because if you're trying to go to the website right now is not responsive.

06:22.000 --> 06:26.000
I fixed this, but I'm not a DevOps and I have a problem with Docker.

06:26.000 --> 06:29.000
If you have some knowledge, don't hesitate.

06:29.000 --> 06:31.000
It's really welcome.

06:31.000 --> 06:33.000
Oh yeah, you have it here.

06:33.000 --> 06:34.000
Nice.

06:34.000 --> 06:45.000
Okay, starting with my iconic and like favorite questions, do you know any women in computer science?

06:45.000 --> 06:50.000
Don't be shy, you can just shout names.

06:50.000 --> 06:52.000
Yeah.

06:52.000 --> 06:53.000
Yes.

06:53.000 --> 06:55.000
Margarita Milton.

06:55.000 --> 06:56.000
Yeah.

06:56.000 --> 06:59.000
I don't remember her name.

06:59.000 --> 07:04.000
I don't remember her name.

07:04.000 --> 07:06.000
Thank you.

07:06.000 --> 07:09.000
Yeah, that's true.

07:09.000 --> 07:11.000
I don't remember her name.

07:11.000 --> 07:12.000
Her first name?

07:12.000 --> 07:13.000
Goldberg.

07:13.000 --> 07:14.000
It was Adele Goldberg.

07:14.000 --> 07:15.000
True.

07:15.000 --> 07:17.000
Thank you.

07:17.000 --> 07:18.000
Second one.

07:18.000 --> 07:19.000
Thank you.

07:19.000 --> 07:22.000
I don't know her.

07:22.000 --> 07:25.000
Okay, I have to do it.

07:25.000 --> 07:31.000
No, I think I'm going to talk to you after please stay.

07:31.000 --> 07:34.000
Thank you.

07:34.000 --> 07:36.000
Okay.

07:36.000 --> 07:38.000
So let's dig in it.

07:38.000 --> 07:43.000
And I'm going to begin the talk by asking another question.

07:43.000 --> 07:47.000
Who can code in assembly here?

07:48.000 --> 07:49.000
Wow.

07:49.000 --> 07:50.000
More than I expected.

07:50.000 --> 07:53.000
Are you still happy in your life?

07:53.000 --> 07:54.000
I'm kidding.

07:54.000 --> 07:55.000
I'm dreaming of coding.

07:55.000 --> 07:56.000
I'm just jealous.

07:56.000 --> 07:57.000
Okay.

07:57.000 --> 08:00.000
I will try to learn one day.

08:00.000 --> 08:02.000
It's easy.

08:02.000 --> 08:05.000
Who can code in X86?

08:05.000 --> 08:06.000
Don't answer.

08:06.000 --> 08:08.000
So this is really the name of the language.

08:08.000 --> 08:09.000
I wasn't sure.

08:09.000 --> 08:16.000
So I think that the thing that I can do that is approaching assembly languages is playing the game.

08:16.000 --> 08:18.000
Human resource machine.

08:18.000 --> 08:21.000
And I'm looking at the last level.

08:21.000 --> 08:23.000
Thank you.

08:23.000 --> 08:24.000
Okay.

08:24.000 --> 08:30.000
So now for the people who doesn't know what the language assembly languages really fast.

08:30.000 --> 08:35.000
So this is a language that is just one step above binary code.

08:35.000 --> 08:41.000
And every and unlike compiled and interpreted languages,

08:41.000 --> 08:48.000
every assembly instruction is directly matches binary instructions.

08:48.000 --> 08:56.000
So this is an example of a program to display hello world for Linux.

08:56.000 --> 09:04.000
And as it is easy, every instructions depends on the processors architecture.

09:04.000 --> 09:06.000
Okay.

09:06.000 --> 09:09.000
Let me apply.

09:09.000 --> 09:21.000
So from the 1947 and the 1953 British couple working at Beerbeck created three computers just on day-on.

09:21.000 --> 09:28.000
The arc, automatic relay computer, the sec, simple electronic computer and the apex, not the game.

09:28.000 --> 09:32.000
All purpose electronic x-ray computer.

09:32.000 --> 09:36.000
So Kathleen Booth and her husband were working like this.

09:36.000 --> 09:42.000
He built the computers and she programmed them and wrote the programs.

09:42.000 --> 09:45.000
Returning from a trip in the United States,

09:45.000 --> 09:53.000
the couple starting to write, started to write 28 pages document titled,

09:53.000 --> 09:59.000
General consideration in the design of all, I'm sorry.

09:59.000 --> 10:04.000
No, it normally, in all purpose electronic digital computer.

10:04.000 --> 10:11.000
And it was describing the improvement they made about the arc computer.

10:11.000 --> 10:18.000
And this is also the first time that we spotted an assembly language in the history created by Kathleen Booth.

10:18.000 --> 10:20.000
So let's wrap it.

10:20.000 --> 10:27.000
So Kathleen Booth is a computer scientist, she invented the first assembly language and little anecdotes.

10:27.000 --> 10:35.000
Her research on neural networks led to programs that mimic how animals recognize shapes and patterns.

10:35.000 --> 10:36.000
Just that.

10:36.000 --> 10:37.000
Okay, go.

10:37.000 --> 10:39.000
You can do it.

10:39.000 --> 10:42.000
Let's continue.

10:42.000 --> 10:45.000
And we're going to speak again about computer.

10:45.000 --> 10:50.000
So before computer machine, computer was a job title.

10:50.000 --> 10:54.000
And it was about long and boring calculations.

10:55.000 --> 11:02.000
This term appeared in the 17th century and literary means one who computes.

11:02.000 --> 11:08.000
At the end of the 19th century, this job was dominated by the women.

11:08.000 --> 11:14.000
Sadly, these workers were a lot invisible, and especially the women.

11:14.000 --> 11:18.000
But it was really a common job in astronomy.

11:18.000 --> 11:23.000
But only every researcher, every scientist, engineers,

11:23.000 --> 11:31.000
relayed on computer, human computers to verify the calculations and the formulas.

11:31.000 --> 11:34.000
Oh, I'm going to first.

11:34.000 --> 11:39.000
Do you think that this is not the case anymore that this kind of people are invisible?

11:39.000 --> 11:40.000
I don't know.

11:40.000 --> 11:41.000
I don't think so.

11:41.000 --> 11:44.000
And let me give you an example.

11:44.000 --> 11:49.000
Who have seen the movie, Oppenheimer, released in 2023?

11:49.000 --> 11:50.000
Okay, a lot.

11:50.000 --> 11:53.000
Did you like it?

11:53.000 --> 11:54.000
Oh, wow.

11:54.000 --> 11:58.000
I heard one, yes, the one.

11:58.000 --> 11:59.000
Okay.

11:59.000 --> 12:02.000
So let's remember a little bit of the movie.

12:02.000 --> 12:07.000
You're going to see the whole life cycle of the bomb through the movie.

12:07.000 --> 12:14.000
You see the scientists speaking about physics and formulas to create the bomb.

12:14.000 --> 12:20.000
You're going to see the military organizing Los Alamos where they're going to test the bomb.

12:20.000 --> 12:25.000
You see the other people transporting assembling the bomb.

12:25.000 --> 12:30.000
Also the people who charge in the communication during the test of the bomb.

12:30.000 --> 12:33.000
They are all men and only men.

12:33.000 --> 12:36.000
And what are the women in the movie?

12:36.000 --> 12:42.000
The wife, the mistress and a random secretary at one moment.

12:42.000 --> 12:44.000
I don't really remember.

12:44.000 --> 12:49.000
So writing it started to ask myself this question.

12:49.000 --> 12:54.000
Why is it not interesting to show the women, the women, computers?

12:54.000 --> 12:59.000
Because you have to know that women were part of the Manhattan's project.

12:59.000 --> 13:00.000
There were a lot.

13:00.000 --> 13:02.000
And not just any women.

13:02.000 --> 13:12.000
At the beginning of the project, it was the wife of the scientist who were the human computers trying to verify and redo the calculation to see if this is right.

13:12.000 --> 13:17.000
But as the project grows, they're hired more and more human computers.

13:17.000 --> 13:19.000
But we don't see them.

13:19.000 --> 13:23.000
We never see them in the movie.

13:23.000 --> 13:25.000
Okay.

13:26.000 --> 13:28.000
I'm going a bit far as I think.

13:28.000 --> 13:29.000
You can do a little break.

13:29.000 --> 13:31.000
I just want a minute to try to.

13:31.000 --> 13:33.000
Okay.

13:33.000 --> 13:35.000
I have to breathe.

13:35.000 --> 13:37.000
After the word word.

13:37.000 --> 13:38.000
The word.

13:38.000 --> 13:39.000
Two.

13:39.000 --> 13:41.000
Many women made history.

13:41.000 --> 13:43.000
And especially at the Naka.

13:43.000 --> 13:45.000
The old Nasa.

13:45.000 --> 13:49.000
And you probably already know them.

13:50.000 --> 13:57.000
We begin with Catherine Johnson, who is a mathematical mathematician.

13:57.000 --> 13:58.000
Mathematician.

13:58.000 --> 14:08.000
Mathematician, who is famous for calculating the trajectory of the first American mission sending a human man in orbit around the earth.

14:08.000 --> 14:12.000
In 1962, the Mercury Atlas 6, friendship 7.

14:12.000 --> 14:17.000
And the little anecdote is that the pilot, John Glenn, didn't trust computers.

14:17.000 --> 14:28.000
So he specifically asked Catherine to redo all the computing to be sure and to verify, refusing to launch without her approval.

14:28.000 --> 14:31.000
We also have Mary Jackson.

14:31.000 --> 14:37.000
Mary Jackson was an American mathematician and aerospace engineer.

14:37.000 --> 14:46.000
And in 1951, she started to work at Langley Research Center as a human computer.

14:46.000 --> 15:02.000
Inside a team led by Dorothy Vulgan that you should probably also already heard the name, which was the first black division head at the Naka and later the Nasa.

15:02.000 --> 15:11.000
The name of the team was the West Area computers and it was only composed by black woman mathematicians.

15:11.000 --> 15:15.000
But when Mary was working there, she started to drink bigger and bigger.

15:15.000 --> 15:19.000
She wanted to do more. She wanted to do something big.

15:19.000 --> 15:21.000
And she wanted to become an engineer.

15:21.000 --> 15:29.000
So she started to take evening classes of mathematics and physics at the Hampton High School.

15:29.000 --> 15:32.000
But you see, this is too easy.

15:32.000 --> 15:35.000
So she needed a permission from the city, a special permission.

15:35.000 --> 15:40.000
Because the school was for white students only, of course.

15:40.000 --> 15:45.000
But she did it. She had the permission. She succeeded her training.

15:45.000 --> 15:50.000
And she became the first Nasa's black woman engineer.

15:50.000 --> 15:53.000
Congrats to her. She's amazing.

15:53.000 --> 16:00.000
So of course, you recognize this woman from the movie and the book Hidden Figure.

16:00.000 --> 16:06.000
If you didn't see or read those, please do it because this is really interesting.

16:06.000 --> 16:11.000
And this is just a master class.

16:11.000 --> 16:15.000
As we speak about Nasa, we can forget Margaret Hamilton.

16:15.000 --> 16:22.000
Remember this picture just here of her standing next to a huge pile of paper.

16:22.000 --> 16:24.000
Told it in her.

16:24.000 --> 16:29.000
I present to you the program Navigation Software of the Apollo program.

16:29.000 --> 16:38.000
That she wrote with her team at the MIT's Drapalab.

16:38.000 --> 16:48.000
In 1963, Margaret joined the Drapalab leading the team that was responsible to develop the software for the navigation,

16:48.000 --> 16:52.000
but also lending in or on the moon.

16:52.000 --> 16:55.000
Always program with that.

16:56.000 --> 17:01.000
Lending on the moon, which is a really important job.

17:01.000 --> 17:08.000
And her work was used for the Apollo program, but also for the sky lab.

17:08.000 --> 17:12.000
There was something really interesting in the way that Margaret coded.

17:12.000 --> 17:17.000
I mean, for that time, is that she wanted to rationalize a lot to her code.

17:17.000 --> 17:19.000
She wanted to be reusable.

17:19.000 --> 17:22.000
So modules software should be reusable in other cases.

17:23.000 --> 17:27.000
And for that time, that was really exceptional.

17:27.000 --> 17:34.000
And as we can see, after Apollo, it has been reused for Skylab.

17:34.000 --> 17:37.000
Both of internet.

17:37.000 --> 17:39.000
Yay.

17:39.000 --> 17:43.000
No, I didn't have, I wanted to say something, but I forgot.

17:43.000 --> 17:51.000
So today, the worldwide web is an entirely part of our life.

17:51.000 --> 17:55.000
In even the smallest details, we use it for everything.

17:55.000 --> 18:00.000
And mostly for useless things.

18:00.000 --> 18:05.000
But let's take a look at its ancestor, the OpenIt.

18:05.000 --> 18:10.000
So OpenIt stands for Advanced Research Projects Agency Network.

18:10.000 --> 18:15.000
It was the first switching packages network.

18:15.000 --> 18:20.000
And it has been created at DARPA.

18:20.000 --> 18:21.000
I always forgot.

18:21.000 --> 18:24.000
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

18:24.000 --> 18:28.000
So the project started in 1962.

18:28.000 --> 18:32.000
It became a reality only in 1969.

18:32.000 --> 18:39.000
And the first official demonstration was in 1972.

18:39.000 --> 18:45.000
So you have to know that the main goal of OpenIt before was not social as it is today.

18:45.000 --> 18:50.000
It was for resource sharing, even if we still see resource sharing still today.

18:50.000 --> 18:59.000
The first users of OpenIt was engineer mathematicians, computer scientists, military, etc.

18:59.000 --> 19:03.000
Who knows this comment if you can read it?

19:03.000 --> 19:05.000
Yeah, okay.

19:05.000 --> 19:08.000
Who's still using it today?

19:08.000 --> 19:09.000
Okay.

19:09.000 --> 19:11.000
Interesting.

19:11.000 --> 19:23.000
But so you have to know that this comment, who is, will let you try to track down who is behind a domain,

19:23.000 --> 19:30.000
not really a person, but who is the owner of the domain of a certain domain?

19:30.000 --> 19:38.000
And this is Elizabeth Faylor, who invented this comment.

19:38.000 --> 19:46.000
So let me introduce to you one of the biggest figure, important figure of the OpenIt, Elizabeth Faylor.

19:46.000 --> 19:52.000
In 1972, she joined the team of Douglas Engelbart.

19:52.000 --> 20:02.000
I didn't see him coming though, but he's the inventor of the GUI and the mouse though, like that you know.

20:02.000 --> 20:07.000
And as soon as she arrived, she had a mission.

20:07.000 --> 20:11.000
She had to create the resource handbook of the OpenIt.

20:11.000 --> 20:16.000
What's the resource book of the resource handbook of the OpenIt?

20:16.000 --> 20:23.000
That's the question that Elizabeth asked to Douglas and the glass answer that he didn't know,

20:23.000 --> 20:26.000
but he needed it for in six weeks.

20:26.000 --> 20:28.000
Okay, great.

20:28.000 --> 20:32.000
But Elizabeth quickly knew what it could be used for.

20:32.000 --> 20:41.000
Create a whole map of the OpenIt, listing all the notes, listing all the people the organization using running the OpenIt,

20:41.000 --> 20:46.000
and like that make it more stable.

20:46.000 --> 20:53.000
With her mostly female team, she was responsible for organizing the network.

20:53.000 --> 21:09.000
And we can see the resource handbook as the browser of the OpenIt, the yellow pages of Elizabeth as the search engine and Elizabeth herself as the human algorithm.

21:09.000 --> 21:17.000
Without that, it was impossible to navigate through the OpenIt.

21:17.000 --> 21:26.000
And as OpenIt grew faster and faster, Elizabeth decided to create a people find the inside the network itself.

21:26.000 --> 21:32.000
And she developed a new service called Who Is That's Why I Talked About It Before.

21:32.000 --> 21:37.000
So yes, that was the original user profile system.

21:37.000 --> 21:42.000
So that's not my space, I'm sorry, it's who is.

21:42.000 --> 21:56.000
Even though the common has changed a lot from that time, it's still really used common and it's still part of the core of internet.

21:56.000 --> 22:03.000
But we are not stopping here, a busy women. She was also part of the first or R.C.F.

22:03.000 --> 22:07.000
So request for common or, no, I'm sorry, or F.C.

22:07.000 --> 22:12.000
This is hard to pronounce for me. The request for commands.

22:12.000 --> 22:18.000
The group that built the standard, the basic standards of the internet we know today.

22:18.000 --> 22:28.000
And she was in the group at the moment when they decided to create something new that it didn't exist at the time.

22:28.000 --> 22:30.000
The domain names.

22:30.000 --> 22:41.000
So because the network still continued to grow fast, fast, fast and fast, they needed to reorganize it because it was really chaotic.

22:41.000 --> 22:47.000
And it's really, I don't have time to explain you all the discussions around that, but it's really fascinating.

22:47.000 --> 22:58.000
So if you don't know, I really recommend you to go and to see how they decided to give the names for the domain names.

22:58.000 --> 23:10.000
And despite her incredible contribution, she's not mentioned in the ones in the French Wikipedia page of the open it.

23:10.000 --> 23:17.000
Okay, we are now in 1983, and a revolutionary invention is about to happen.

23:17.000 --> 23:30.000
So if he will soon, he's a British computer scientist, and she has been working at a con computer, LTD since 1978.

23:30.000 --> 23:42.000
When she started designing the instruction for the first risk processes, the con risk machine or ARM.

23:42.000 --> 23:54.000
The ARM1 processor was delivered on April 26 on 1985 and worked perfectly on its first tests.

23:54.000 --> 24:05.000
This processor became one of the most powerful core and by 2012, it was used by more than 95% of the smartphone.

24:05.000 --> 24:11.000
And I think that my data is a bit outdated because we are in 2025 now.

24:11.000 --> 24:17.000
Okay, let's play a little game.

24:17.000 --> 24:24.000
So I think that everybody knows who is, and you have two proposition of his name.

24:24.000 --> 24:28.000
All right, one is false, of course. There is a mistake in one of them.

24:28.000 --> 24:34.000
Who thinks that the proposition A is correct?

24:35.000 --> 24:40.000
A, okay, who think it's the B?

24:40.000 --> 24:48.000
Okay, majority voted for the A, of course, it was the A. I put a E randomly in his name.

24:48.000 --> 24:55.000
Well done, so this is Tim Berners Lee, one of the three inventors of the worldwide web.

24:55.000 --> 24:59.000
And now let's look at someone else.

24:59.000 --> 25:12.000
This women invited the STP protocol, spanning tree protocol, who allowed the worldwide web to exist.

25:12.000 --> 25:22.000
I have two names, so it's easier. Who think that her name is the first proposition, so Betty Olberton?

25:23.000 --> 25:26.000
Who think it's the B?

25:26.000 --> 25:31.000
Okay, that's nice. A lot of people already know her. Amazing.

25:31.000 --> 25:34.000
So of course, this is a radio, I don't know how to pronounce her name.

25:34.000 --> 25:38.000
A radio poem.

25:38.000 --> 25:43.000
So a radio poem is a computer scientist and network engineer.

25:43.000 --> 25:48.000
And since childhood, she loved puzzles, logic, and mathematics.

25:48.000 --> 25:54.000
She secretly dreamed of a boy that would beat her in math.

25:54.000 --> 26:06.000
It never happened. She always has always been the top first in her classes.

26:06.000 --> 26:16.000
We are now in 1985, and radio is working at the DEC, and at that time, the Ethernet was becoming a global standard.

26:16.000 --> 26:31.000
With one major issue, is that when the network is growing, at some point, the package, the package was starting to collide into each other.

26:31.000 --> 26:36.000
Which was really problematic if you want to scale up your network.

26:36.000 --> 26:51.000
So one day, the manager of radio came to her and said, let me, I want you to invite a black box, magic box, a magic box that would result that would fix the Ethernet box.

26:51.000 --> 26:59.000
That's finished without needing more memory and letting the Ethernet scale up without a problem.

27:00.000 --> 27:09.000
And what's that funny is that the manager asked her that on a Friday, because the next week he was going on a vacation, one week vacation.

27:09.000 --> 27:14.000
Because he thought that we would be a really hard problem to solve.

27:14.000 --> 27:23.000
The radio, the same night, in the middle of the night, with the solution.

27:23.000 --> 27:30.000
So really impressive of her, just half a day to find the solution of this problem.

27:30.000 --> 27:35.000
And so she writes everything, the proposition, the specification, everything.

27:35.000 --> 27:40.000
So she invited that day, the spanning tree protocol.

27:40.000 --> 27:47.000
And because she was waiting, because on Monday everything was done already, she was bored.

27:47.000 --> 27:58.000
She decided to write a poem about the spanning tree protocol inspired by one of the favourite poem of her mother.

27:58.000 --> 28:02.000
I think that I should never see a graph more lovely than a tree.

28:02.000 --> 28:06.000
A tree whose crucial property is looked reconnectivity.

28:06.000 --> 28:11.000
A tree which must be sure to span so packets can reach every land.

28:11.000 --> 28:18.000
First, the root must be selected by ID is elected.

28:18.000 --> 28:23.000
Leescused path from root are traced in the tree, this path are placed.

28:23.000 --> 28:29.000
A meshes made by folks like me, then bridges, find a spanning tree.

28:29.000 --> 28:38.000
I would never think to see one day the word LAN in a poem.

28:38.000 --> 28:45.000
But this is amazing.

28:45.000 --> 28:55.000
So without the STP, the worldwide web would never exist, or at least not as big as we have it today.

28:55.000 --> 29:04.000
And even now, even if the STP is not used a lot for legacy networks,

29:04.000 --> 29:10.000
modern and new and modern protocol are still extension of it.

29:10.000 --> 29:16.000
Some example are the or STP or the MSTP.

29:16.000 --> 29:19.000
All right.

29:19.000 --> 29:23.000
The Leesfun parts, girls and mathematics.

29:23.000 --> 29:31.000
So in my first talk, I talked about the gap in the 80s between the women and the computer science,

29:31.000 --> 29:37.000
especially in Europe and America, so still I'm speaking about Europe and America here.

29:37.000 --> 29:51.000
But we have another big issue, girls and mathematics, which is part of the problem that women are afraid to begin also in computer science.

29:51.000 --> 29:55.000
In 2000, researchers published a study.

29:55.000 --> 30:03.000
It was an experiment on newborn babies, which were presented an object and a human face.

30:03.000 --> 30:13.000
And they observed what the baby preferred, the face or the object.

30:13.000 --> 30:20.000
So the boys looked more at the objects and the girls to the human faces.

30:20.000 --> 30:31.000
And the authors of the study said that boys naturally have a systemizing brain, meaning they understand where objects are in space and how they work.

30:31.000 --> 30:36.000
Congrats boys, you have already a geometry degree when you're born.

30:36.000 --> 30:39.000
I'm kidding, I'm not even sure if it exists.

30:39.000 --> 31:00.000
But the girls, on the other hand, have more empathizing brain, looking for more focused on people and care more about others.

31:00.000 --> 31:08.000
And from this they conclude that girls aren't as interested or skilled in math and science.

31:09.000 --> 31:19.000
Okay, so this is funny to say that kind of thing, because when you look, you are looking through the history like from my talks, even from my talk.

31:19.000 --> 31:26.000
You can see that there were a lot and a lot of women in mathematician women.

31:26.000 --> 31:37.000
And I also find a paper who was, who disagree with the study, like say the same point per point, why?

31:37.000 --> 31:47.000
And here I have the statistics of the study. I'm sorry, I couldn't click on the study. I didn't want to either click on the statistics of this study.

31:47.000 --> 31:55.000
So here we have the stats. The study was made on 102 babies.

31:55.000 --> 32:03.000
27 girls showed no preferences between objects and face.

32:03.000 --> 32:11.000
And the boys, 19, has had a mobile preference versus 14 for no preference.

32:11.000 --> 32:20.000
So I don't know why they conclude so much thing I just said before, but it's interesting.

32:20.000 --> 32:29.000
And you have to know that this theory was widely shared by the media, right?

32:29.000 --> 32:35.000
Even though it was heavily criticized by the community, the scientist community.

32:35.000 --> 32:41.000
And one big issue with the experiment is that newborn baby comes to the head.

32:41.000 --> 32:49.000
They can't choose to look at one object when they are up.

32:49.000 --> 32:54.000
So you have to know that the baby was hold, but they went so noise in the data.

32:54.000 --> 33:03.000
They don't even really properly report it how they maintain the head of the babies.

33:03.000 --> 33:09.000
And we also know that there is no other research teams that have observed the same behavior.

33:09.000 --> 33:19.000
And on the contrary, many psychology studies on children show that there are no differences between boys and girls.

33:19.000 --> 33:24.000
So today we have a one big problem with the girls and the women.

33:24.000 --> 33:32.000
We always hear them and I'm not good at math, instead of no, I'm not interested in math.

33:32.000 --> 33:48.000
So without knowing it, without realizing it, they still believe that they don't have what it takes to succeed in mathematics.

33:48.000 --> 33:53.000
I also have an anecdote about the low rent summers.

33:53.000 --> 34:01.000
The president of the Harvard University said something in January 2005.

34:01.000 --> 34:03.000
Oh, you have to read it.

34:03.000 --> 34:09.000
He said, so January 2005, low rent summers, the president of Harvard University said,

34:09.000 --> 34:17.000
the low number of women in science is because they are naturally not able to succeed in these fields.

34:17.000 --> 34:21.000
Tell that to Katherine Johnson or Dorothy again.

34:21.000 --> 34:27.000
And a lot of people use the study in the 2000 to support what he said.

34:27.000 --> 34:42.000
So it's really complicated because because of the media who took the study, it's really like stuck in our culture in our society.

34:42.000 --> 34:47.000
So this is already the conclusion. I have been really fast. I was really stressed.

34:47.000 --> 34:52.000
So you're going to be free. You're going to have a little break after that.

34:52.000 --> 34:56.000
And I would like to finish with two little sentences.

34:56.000 --> 35:03.000
A representation allows a person to identify with something and see new possibilities.

35:03.000 --> 35:08.000
A rule model, a person to admire someone and push their limits.

35:08.000 --> 35:13.000
Not everyone needs a rule model, but everyone needs representation.

35:13.000 --> 35:16.000
Thank you.

35:16.000 --> 35:33.000
Thank you.

35:33.000 --> 35:38.000
Those people have questions or you can come and talk to me if you want to.

35:38.000 --> 35:41.000
Thank you so much for your intention.

35:41.000 --> 35:46.000
And good luck for the cues to the death rooms.

35:46.000 --> 35:48.000
Samoa.

35:48.000 --> 35:54.000
Hello. So thank you for this. This is a second year and I really hope that you will do it every year now from now on.

35:54.000 --> 35:56.000
And maybe it will not be like this.

35:56.000 --> 35:59.000
Maybe even some kind of workshop or something else.

35:59.000 --> 36:04.000
So we can play, build some code, you have some fun and do more than this.

36:05.000 --> 36:09.000
Thank you so much for this.

36:09.000 --> 36:17.000
Every year is really, I was really happy to come here and see you with this talk because we need more of this things here.

36:17.000 --> 36:18.000
Thank you so much.

36:18.000 --> 36:23.000
And if you are a teacher, if you are getting workshops, you are teaching things.

36:23.000 --> 36:26.000
Don't hesitate to cite the authors, the inventors.

36:26.000 --> 36:31.000
People don't have to remember the names, but just like they are having female names.

36:31.000 --> 36:37.000
Women say women names inside syllabus books or during the lessons.

36:37.000 --> 36:40.000
It's always a good start and we need that.

36:40.000 --> 36:41.000
Thank you.

36:41.000 --> 36:44.000
Another question.

36:44.000 --> 36:48.000
Thank you.

36:49.000 --> 36:52.000
Have a good day.

37:03.000 --> 37:06.000
So I was wondering in terms of...

37:06.000 --> 37:08.000
I'm sorry I can't hear you.

37:08.000 --> 37:12.000
Can you just move a little bit silently when you're going?

37:12.000 --> 37:13.000
Thank you.

37:14.000 --> 37:19.000
Maybe you can come in as the question here is going to be easier.

37:19.000 --> 37:20.000
Thank you.
