One of the few people in the computing industry who truly deserves to be called a hero. I was proud to have met her and listen to several of her great talks. She always ended her talks by telling how wonderful the enlisted people with whom she worked proved why the United States is in great hands.
I named my first homemade computer after Ada Lovelace (which I'm writing this comment on) and was planning to build a new one and name it "Admiral Hopper", but I have to wait until the scalpers quit buying every AMD ryzen 5 5600x in stock to resell on ebay.
This woman is a U.S. legend and bona fide rock star. Ph.D in math from Yale in 1934! I would have given just about anything to take classes from her. What an incredible genius and personality. I measure all my programs in nanoseconds because of her. I second don Vickers comment, one of the few. Amazing woman who literally changed the world and it's almost certain we might not have things like Google/Microsoft/Apple and the site you're on now without the work she did, exactly when she did it. Will have to visit her on my next trip to Arlington.
Several photos of her hang on the wall in my office on campus in the NIU Department of Computer Science. I also bought a reverse running wall clock when I read she had one hanging in her own office. She's a personal hero of mine.
I met her 40 years ago 1982 She was as young then as she was young now always looking up to the future for a better way. The value (validity( of the data was more important than the speed of the data What an inspiration for me
Even before they became a regular part in our vocabulary, Ms. Hopper succeeded in explaining what a nanosecond is in very simple language. And when this segment was first broadcast, the pc industry was virtually in its infancy so unless you worked for Apple or IBM, I doubt anyone could have imagined what that industry would be like just 10 years later.
I saw her in either '74 or '75 at the Air Force Academy. I was a high school student at Air Academy High School taking Computer Science, and the AFA generously allowed us to use "Bobby Burroughs" at the Academy. Admiral Hopper paid the Cadets a visit, and I happened to stumble upon it. I had absolutely no idea who this grandmotherly lady was other than a) She was Navy, and b) She was obviously a senior officer. The Zoomies were crowded around her and she was loving every minute of it. After the Zoomies moved on, we said "Hi" to each other, and that was that until after the advent of the Internet I saw a picture of her and I couldn't help but think that I had seen her somewhere before. :) It was common enough for Army officers to show up from time to time, occasionally a Marine. But Navy sightings were even more rare, and here was a Captain of my grandmothers' age. :)
Actor Taylor Kitsch played Navy Lt. Alex "Hopper" in the sci-fi movie Battleship. He was the hero who saved the world from the invading Aliens. It’s interesting that he had the same last name in the movie as real life Navy Hero Grace "Hopper". Just a coincidence, or a fun way of recognizing Grace Hopper?
This has helped me a lot thank you haha I’m her for the history fair and my name is grace I LOVE THE COLOR BLUE and we have the same eye color and the same hair color (when she was as old as me)
Cobal was the second computer language I ever learned after basic it was Cobal. She was a amazing intellect and a amazing personality, I am glad she is remembered so well in history.
Yeah since 1983 I can see what has happened with computers. They've shrunken in size to things you can embed on a fingernail. Or a device you can hold in the palm of your hand that allows you instant access to all forms of information.
Hopper likely wouldn't have been surprised at that development. She said it so confidently back in 1983 that they were only in the beginning of the computer's development. She wasn't wrong.

So.... she was okay with the 1 in 10 woman getting SA in the military. Olay
@@user-kh3yn4sr4e you watched a posthumous honor video of this wonderful woman, and that's your takeaway?
May she rest in peace
1906 - 1992
My wife tends to name things around the house. Her first car was a Honda and she named him Fenry. She named her newest computer "Grace"

She was absolutely right.
What a fitting person to name supercomputers after. Badass

She's the genius who became a hero.
Ted Kaczynski was the genius who became a villain.
They both had the same PhD.

Kids can learn more about this amazing woman in my picture book biography, GRACE HOPPER: QUEEN OF COMPUTER CODE.
Mother of the geeks. I still see Cobol sometimes depending on my clients. 😉😎Very smart woman.

Missed. Even in 2020 🇺🇸
Not me. She would be Trumper in 2020. So thank heavens she passed away before she became a villain like JKR

Amazing Grace, RIP

Brilliant lady. Got to meet her at Great Lakes BE/E School.
Great sense of humor!
Doing a history fair project about het because she is AMAZING

next step: even smaller and machine learning.

I remember a small park dedicated to her in pentagon city in the vicinity of the apartment she lived in.
she's a woman amazing
An amazing and extremely wise woman, rolled up in a Rear Admiral’s uniform - sweet and simple
She cared about your heart and soul not the revenue you might generate and soul not the revenue you might generate
Where's the rest of this?
Um actually she’s an admiral not a captain
