Seventy seven #women #BletchleyPark codebreakers from #WWII revealed for the first time.
Many of them took the secret to their graves.
"Whenever one of the graduates, Jane Monroe – a #mathematician who worked in #cryptanalysis in Hut 6 at Bletchley Park, deciphering the coded messages sent on German Enigma machines around the clock – was asked what she did during the war, she would always say: “Oh, I made the tea.”"

“Being a woman in tech is insane. We do not work in the same moral system model as most of the people that we interact with daily and we can’t talk about it, because when we do, we are the ones portrayed as crazy or hysterical.”
This is such an excellent piece by @irene – you should spend a few minutes today reading it.

This #WITDay, we're celebrating Martine Postma. She's the activist and former journalist who started the Repair Café movement.
“I wanted to do more than just write about it,” Postma says. “More and more people don’t feel good about our throw-away society and are ready for change. [They] don’t throw away because they want to, but because they don’t know what else to do.”
