They found that by 2011 only 0.4% of women planned to major in computer science compared to 3.3% of men. The... | Gender disparity in computing | 0.782842 |

Additionally, the percentage of women earning a master's degree peaked around 33% in 2000 but dropped to 27% in 2008.Within the United States, the representation of women in the computing field has declined over the past thirty years. As of 2018, women made up 18% of undergraduates in... | Gender disparity in computing | 0.782842 |
85,691 | In the United States, the proportion of women represented in the computer science field peaked around the mid-1980s and has declined ever since. In 1984, 37.1% of Computer Science degrees were awarded to women. However, this percentage dropped to 29.9% in 1990 and 26.7% in 1998.

85,692 | In the online article Digital Maoism, Lanier argues that the collective is more likely to be smart only when 1. it is not defining its own questions, 2. the goodness of an answer can be evaluated by a simple result (such as a single numeric value), and 3. the information system which informs the collective is filtered ... | The Wisdom of Crowds | 0.782842 |
85,693 | Although Kasparov did say, "It is the greatest game in the history of chess. The sheer number of ideas, the complexity, and the contribution it has made to chess make it the most important game ever played." In his book You Are Not a Gadget, Jaron Lanier argues that crowd wisdom is best suited for problems that involve... | The Wisdom of Crowds | 0.782842 |
85,694 | The Wisdom of Crowds: Why the Many Are Smarter Than the Few and How Collective Wisdom Shapes Business, Economies, Societies and Nations, published in 2004, is a book written by James Surowiecki about the aggregation of information in groups, resulting in decisions that, he argues, are often better than could have been ... | The Wisdom of Crowds | 0.782842 |
85,695 | The CHARA (Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy) array is an optical interferometer, located on Mount Wilson, California. The array consists of six 1-metre (40 in) telescopes operating as an astronomical interferometer. Construction was completed in 2003. CHARA is owned by Georgia State University (GSU). | CHARA interferometer | 0.782841 |
85,696 | The phenotypic result was loss of tumorigenicity of the CSCs and improved mouse survival. These experiments demonstrate that flavoHb can be employed for in vivo studies of nitric oxide biology and suggest that therapeutic NO-depletion may be achieved via heterologous expression of bacterial flavoHbs. == References == | Nitric oxide dioxygenase | 0.782841 |
85,697 | However, such a group was given by V. Lafforgue in 1998 as he showed that cocompact lattices in S L ( 3 , R ) {\displaystyle SL(3,\mathbb {R} )} have the property of rapid decay and thus satisfy the conjecture.

85,698 | Let Γ {\displaystyle \Gamma } be the integers Z {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } . Then the left hand side is the K-homology of B Z {\displaystyle B\mathbb {Z} } which is the circle. The C ∗ {\displaystyle C^{*}} -algebra of the integers is by the commutative Gelfand–Naimark transform, which reduces to the Fourier transfor... | Baum–Connes conjecture | 0.78284 |
85,699 | The original formulation of the conjecture was somewhat different, as the notion of equivariant K-homology was not yet common in 1982. In case Γ {\displaystyle \Gamma } is discrete and torsion-free, the left hand side reduces to the non-equivariant K-homology with compact supports of the ordinary classifying space B Γ ... | Baum–Connes conjecture | 0.78284 |
