In 1942 a secret US military program was launched to recruit women to the war effort. But unlike the efforts to recruit Rosie to the factory, this search targeted female mathematicians who would become human 'computers' for the Army. From the bombing of Axis Europe to the assaults on Japanese strongholds, women worked round-the-clock shifts creating ballistics tables for every weapon in the US arsenal. Rosie made the weapons, but the female computers made them accurate. When the first electronic computer (ENIAC) was developed to aid the Army's calculation efforts, six of these women were tapped to become its first programmers. While the work of these human computers proved crucial to allied victory, it also carried a moral weight - how to square the larger issue of ending a world war against the personal recognition that their mathematical computations made every Allied bomb and gun more deadly. The summer of 2010 marks the 65th anniversary of the end of WWII, yet the amazing account of these women remains untold, until now. Top Secret 'Rosies': The Female 'Computers' of WWII shares a story of the women and technology that helped win a war and usher in the modern computer age.
看完the bletchley circle后来刷的纪录片，五味杂陈。感谢这些优秀的女性，感谢joinfeminism字幕组。
ENIAC计算机背后的被遗忘的女人们的故事，非常非常的有意思，且提供了看待战争经历者和战后女权发展的新视角（战争逼迫女人迈出家门并接受更好的教育，而战后她们也不想回家了）。之后的讨论也非常非常有意思, an evening well spent indeed.
