thanks to a young computer programmer who flipped the kill switch. with that said, hallie, bossert said the attacks from north korea continue to do this, take a look. we applaud our corporate partners, microsoft specifically for acting on their own initiative last week to disrupt the activities of north korean hackers. microsoft acted before the attack in ways to spare many u.s. targets. last week, microsoft and facebook and other major tech companies acted to disable a number of north korean cyberexploits and disrupt their operations as the north koreans were still infecting computers across the globe. reporter: the big question now is what is the consequence for north korea. the white house won t go as far at this point to say additional sanctions will come from this. at this point, they want the private sector to work with the u.s. to step up the attacks. geoff bennett there at the white house. peter alexanderson pressing tom
i felt weird about it. it was very evident that this gender gap existed. the technology field is extremely male dominated. only see 30% representation for women in most tech companies. it is funny. the first programmers were women. can multiply and divide more than 2,000 times a second. for a long time, the stereotype of what a computer programmer looked like was a woman. then roughly many the 80s it sort of switched. sometimes it is intimidating to walk in a room, not see anybody that looks like you. it was very obvious something was wrong. i just wanted to do something about it. when i was a junior in high school, decided to make the free five day computer science camp.
for most of the time on the robotics team, i was the only female programmer out of 10 or 11 programmers. i felt weird about it. it was very evident that this gender gap. it is extremely male dominated. only see 30% representation for women in most tech companies. it is funny. the first programmers were women. can multiply and divide more than 2,000 times a second. for a long time, the stereotype of what a computer programmer looked like was a woman. then in the 80s it sort of switched. sometimes it is intimidating to walk in a room, not see anybody that looks like you. it was very obvious something was wrong. i just wanted to do something about it. when i was a junior in high
