Hey Linda, you've been role model for me as I've navigated my career in software. The way you talk about art, education, humanity and software has been a voice to my longings in software. I had a question for your Q&A around who inspires you to pursue what you are doing.
Do you have two or three people who you admire, read, etc?
I want to find others/peers to do similar work to what you are doing but it's been difficult so far. I believe the first step is to find examples of people that speak to me and then hopefully find others with similar passions. You've opened me up to many voices Christopher Alexander, Ellen Ullman, and Logic Magazine so far. I've also found Bret Victor who thinks in similar ways to you. His view on software is refreshing.
I almost changed career paths last year because I didn't believe art, humanity and software could be sought together. Your blog has continued to encourage me to ask the questions of how these could work together. I want to discover how we can use software to bring life into the world. Thank you for sharing so many great resources with us.
