Seriously. As the article states, while everyone else was like "Wow cool we will make a machine that makes calculating things easier"

Meanwhile Ada over here going "Oh shit this can do literally anything that can be done by steps of math. Someday machines following that formula will make music"

Ada is not the first programmer. Ada is the first computer scientist. She understood the ramifications of what we would eventually call "turing complete" systems, and understood the value of "general purpose" in a general purpose computer, and seemingly understood that more than just numbers could be represented and calculated in a computer.
