Female Software Engineers and Startup Founders?
7 by aabiji | 2 comments on Hacker News.
The tech industry is male dominated. And while people's sex/gender shouldn't matter, after a while one can't help but notice. Lately I've been wondering about the prominent female software engineers, programmers or startup founders that are out there and I realised that I know of none. Do you guys know of any? As a female teen who's interested in programming and who wants to found a startup one day, the gender disparity makes me more hesitant to want to go deep into the industry. So however cheesy it may sound, having people like me that I could "look up" to would make me feel more encouraged about my ambitions.
