I have mixed feelings on the pronoun use, but having read some of her autobiographical writing I don't think she would have taken much issue with it. This piece is more focused on her work in computer engineering, so I felt it was appropriate to post here.

Did man write grants to show how said fire had military applications? If so, how dare they! If not your straw man is kinda lacking.

Fire cook food. Fire also kill...

So no, it's really not lol. Most people smart enough to invent shit know that in can be used for evil. That doesn't mean we shouldn't use nuclear energy. There is nuance behind advancing civilization.

The people intelligent enough to make these things are usually looking far beyond anyone else and the military's money is just as good as anyones.

If you’re writing a grant illustrating its military applications I don’t really care what else you want to use it for. Looks like we disagree about intention so have fun with that.
