I don't understand the "computer girl" one, did the technician think that her being a woman meant she was doing computer science instead of physics?

I'm not sure of the timeframe of this, but it could be referring to the time when calculations were done by women by hand: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvard_Computers

Hero.

I love everything about how she's calling out the culture in her realm of academia and casting it in Stone by being the first pages of her book.

Sucks it all happened. But proud to have it justly put on blast.

Never let the actions of others dictate your future. If you have a goal never never give up.

Simpler said than done. Of course I agree with you, but we need deeper changes in our society, in our behaviour as people. If you get told time and time again, that you're worthless, can't achieve anything etc. that's going to leave a mark. Sure, encouraging to not let that dominate one's thoughts is a useful skill. But it shouldn't be necessary in the first place.
