Interview with Grace Hopper

On Habré, she was already remembered: the Rear Admiral of the US Navy, one of the creators of the first American computer MARK-I, the author of the world's first compiler, the developer of the programming language COBOL, the inventor of the term " bug " in its current understanding, and just a talented person Grace Hopper . And also a destroyer was named in her honor and a prize was established, which Knut, Wozniak, Stallman, Stroustrup and other worthy people received in due time.

I took the liberty of making Russian subtitles for an interview with Grace taken from her at the age of 80, when she had already left the fleet and worked for a private company. Grace talks about his career, jokes about the presidents and explains some terms. May God grant everyone in their lives to accomplish at least half of what she has done and to preserve such working capacity and clarity of thought by such an honorable age.

(Who does not know - subtitles are enabled and configured by the "CC" button)

PS YouTube in some countries says that the video is not available. But for example with the US VPN - works (and video and subtitles).
