When angels also know the code!

Model & Code?

Well, you will not have to wonder: what model is involved in the dry programming?!? But the information below will make you think twice about this. Model Writing Code? Why not?
American supermodel  Karlie Kloss  - a programming enthusiast has joined the ranks of "active female stars who encourage young girls to learn programming." She is determined to break the gender imbalance, as the number of men overwhelms the programming industry as well as the tech lovers.
Karlie's Scholarship, which was funded by Karlie, is a scholarship given to girls aged 13-20. The scholarship offers a two-week program of study at Flatiron (a technology school in the US) where Karlie spent two weeks on her busy schedule in 2014 to learn about submit. By awarding this scholarship, the 23-year-old supermodel wants to encourage and give young girls a chance to experience the great things they encounter in the field of programming.
Her scholarship program has helped girls across the United States get access to the great achievements of programming. Last August, Karlie, along with his students, had finished writing the program. There is nothing to say to this beautiful, talented model, except for the words  "Great."
Known around the world as the "angel" of Victoria's Secret, as well as the face of the world's leading fashion brands such as Versace, Dior ... etc., Karlie is currently inspired thousands of fashion enthusiasts and wanted to enter the field of programming.
According to the latest information,  Karlie  is currently away from the catwalk and focuses on the study of computer technology and programming at the University of New York. She shared, "In high school, there are not any computer science and programming classes at my school. But I'm always attracted by math and science. I also realize the potential that the technology industry can make the world change so much. I learned to code. Code is a way for our world to grow. It does not matter if a computer or a human, everything is, is and will be connected through programming. "
Karlie is followed by  Lyndsey Scott - also a model of Victoria's Secret, who devotes her love to programming. The 29-year-old has received two prestigious honors in Computer and Theater Technology, continuing to develop her programming career alongside modeling - where she has had remarkable success. As a model for famous brands such as Gucci, Prada and Louis Vuitton.
In an interview with the BBC, Lyndsey said: "She always felt surprised that people were shocked when she knew she could Code. "I think people are doing too much things, that my reputation is beauty. There are so many people in the world who can program and do other things, but they are not paid attention, because They are not Victoria's Secret models, "Scott said. "The time I spend on programming is even longer than when I was a model."  While busy with moving around the world for Prada and Louis Vuiton's promotional campaigns, Lyndsey has also developed seven iPhone apps, and two of those have been accepted by Apple.

Although Lyndsey always wanted to keep her program secret, she was also a well-known member of Stack Overflow, a website where programmers could ask questions about programming. Even so, Lyndsey is also an active member of the forum. Up to now, Lyndsey has had over 1000 Good Points; Her profile hits 38,000 views. She shared that she had been using her website for a long time, so she wanted to contribute something to the community. She began to answer questions from website users. By helping others, she accidentally built her reputation as a programmer. Lyndsey also combines two areas of his career: fashion and technology, by writing an App - where models can upload their photo books to the iPad for use when casting. "I wrote this app because it was exactly what I needed. My picture book after a while of use looks horrible. The book is broken and the pages are torn, looking very dirty and messy. "
Lyndsey is also enthusiastic about encouraging women to participate in technology. Recently, she also voiced the lack of female sex workers in the industry. Lyndsey believes that girls learn not only the different programming languages, but they can also develop and sell the ones they write. Therefore, giving them the opportunity as soon as possible is the key to solving problems. She said:  "I know myself favorite programming job at my age of 13, as soon as I found myself with a pocket calculator TI-89 - a machine with programmable functions and a book filled with research materials. I think the young people love and want to understand: What makes the technology they use. But they are given too little to understand it. "
Lyndsey is also a member of "Girl Who Code," an organization that helps female programmers learn. Model  Lily Cole  (founder of social networking site  impossible.com ) and American television comedy star Mindy Kaling are also frequent appearances at technology conferences and forums. Frequent as their appearance in the magazines in the entertainment industry. 
Encouraging women to participate in the "dry" field like programming is one of the top concerns of Kathryn Parsons  , co-founder of Decodes. Code in a Day program. "Women are customers and users of tools and products - which are largely based on ideas and creativity by men," Kathryn said. She believes that Klie's activities will be a powerful source of encouragement, promising to bring new perspectives on women working in the field of programming.At the same time, she hopes this will contribute to changing stereotypes of those who once considered programming unsuitable for women. "People are making their own hurdles, before they try to do them," Kathryn said. "Karls Kloss can make many women choose programming as their career path. Anything that can make them break old stereotypes is amazing. "
Says Sarah Watson, mobile device manager at Net - a - Porter: "  The diversity of project teams on women, will give members more creative and better result"With the support of celebrities, many other initiatives and initiatives have been launched to attract young people to programming. Typically, the Hour of Code -workshop is hosted by Apple's worldwide chain of stores for free one hour, and is held annually during the Computer Science Education Week. There are also thousands of events organized by volunteers and educators. There is also a Code Club - a free network in the UK, running volunteer activities, and After-school programming club, for children from 9 to 11 years old. Women Who Code, a nonprofit organization in the UK, aims to: inspire women so they can succeed in technology.
Attracting women's attention to programming and making women increasingly play a greater role in this area will be a precursor to eradicating gender imbalances in the workplace. as well as in society. "The things Karlie did were really commendable, she pioneered a new direction, inspires and craves for a whole generation," Kathryns said. "Lovers of Karlie Kloss say that her code seems to have hit the psyche, helping them change their minds. "She is female? She's a model? ", But she also knows programming. Nothing can limit your ability. And to those who criticized and mocked for this undeniable truth, Parson had the perfect answer: "As Karlie's close friend Taylor Swift said" Haters gonna hate "- the jealous I will continue to hate.
