I wonder how many of those women had to learn to code to fix the typos?

The level of structural sexism back then was off the charts, at least it was overt. Now we just tell people there is no glass ceiling and it must be their problem.

The Wang didn't allow for any coding.

Neither does paper.

I am wondering about error rates, human -> paper, paper -> file, file -> execution.

Those feedback loops are enormous. It would be interesting to interview woman from the computer code typing pool.
