In 1980, women held 70% of programming jobs in Silicon Valley, a stark contrast to today’s tech industry. The shift in gender dynamics within the tech sector has been influenced by various factors, including changes in the educational pipeline and the persistent myth of tech as a meritocracy. Despite these changes, the core reasons for the shift remain complex and multifaceted. Meanwhile, the US Government Accountability Office reports on improper federal payments have circulated online, influencing discussions on government efficiency. Over the past three weeks, the new US presidential administration has removed thousands of government web pages, prompting efforts to archive federal data before it’s lost. Additionally, the Trump administration’s decision to slash billions in biomedical research funding has sent shockwaves through academia, with potential legal challenges on the horizon.
