A Short History of Women at Los Alamos National Laboratory

LANL has the best science museum I have ever been to.

nice article, although I think the title is a bit dismissive... An Incomplete History of Women at LANL would have been better

It takes a special kind of “intellect” to pigeonhole women into the computer role, with math degrees. That must have been one of the most difficult jobs and generally not in line with the sexist mindset. It really was a different time.

Meta comment: I have never seen a front page HN post go this long (4 hours) without a single comment before. Interesting. I wonder what the record is for longest time on the front page with no comments? Does anyone know?

And yes, I know I just broke the streak :/
