Continuing the discussion from Women in Compilers and Tools May 2022 Meetup: AMA with Professor Michelle Strout:
For the upcoming meetup, highlighting Professor Michelle Strout, we would love to learn about folks interests within the compiler and programming languages domain and how they were formed. These are free response and anonymous. Please do not feel required to answer all these questions, but pick and choose which feel relevant. This questionnaire can be submitted anonymously via https://forms.gle/TxHwV7mgrrES7Db39
The questions are:
- What do you find most cool about compilers?
- How did you originally come across compiler development?
- Did you take a compilers course as a student?
- Was a compilers course required at your school?
- What are some ways you have found to balance family responsibilities or personal passions with technical work?
- How would you compare the accessibility for contributing to compiler projects as opposed to other computer science domains?
