Book Description
Are women really kicking butt in computer science? National statistics show little progress in the participation of women in computing; this in spite of numerous studies, reports and recommendations on the topic. Some might say the reasons for the situation remain a mystery. However, at Carnegie Mellon University we do not believe that the situation is either so mysterious or such an intractable problem. Indeed, women are kicking butt in computer science in some cultures and environments. This book tells the Carnegie Mellon story, a positive story of how one school developed a culture and environment in which both women and men could thrive and be successful in computer science.

Book Description
We all kick the bucket. Some of us so unexpectedly, our EBAY, Shopify and Etsy listings hang out there in the wind until someone finally figures it out - if they do at all. Our Facebook account is frozen in time because of a long forgotten password not written down circa 2005. Very few people have actual wills and even if you do, are your daily to do things listed somewhere for an attorney to eventually instruct a loved one to take care of months after the fact? Probably not. And does your designated agent (i.e. your spouse, your kid, cousin or best friend) know where the key to the side gate is located? Or what music you really want played at the reception following your funeral? This is your chance to put your two cents into the planning. If you've lost five or ten minutes of sleep wondering who would think to look for your streaming subscriptions and cancel them ASAP or your Amazon Prime account with that upcoming renewal date and automatic debit charge, this book is for you. Write everything down and tuck it away. It's not on a locked computer with a password no one knows in a file some internet troll might hack. Once it's done, take a deep breath and get on with your amazing, incredible life!
