I was just asked if I was going to write a blog for Ada Lovelace day this year. And yes, yes I am.
Earlier this year I actually met a bunch of really cool women who work in technology jobs!
In no particular order (apart from alphabetically) I'd like to mention Angela Byron, Liz Henry, Emma Jane Hogbin and Brenda Wallace.
When you meet any of them, buy them a $beverage; they deserve it :-)
Well, I finally got a revision 1.0 out the door for one of my Drupal modules. A fact I thought I'd celebrate with a blog.
The module with this honour is the most recent one I started, userpoints_evaporate, just over a week ago.
I guess it's a nice example of why open source is cool. Someone on the #drupal-support channel on Freenode asked if anyone knew whether an existing module could do what he wanted, which was essentially use the UserPoints module (which works kind of like karma on Launchpad) to automatically expire a set number of points for all users every hour or day (again, kind of like karma on Launchpad).
