Note that even though she only contributed 2,400 lines out of 900,000, her contributions are quite trivial.

>fucking served you a dish of shut the fuck up.
do you understand any of this?
he uploaded a lot of raw data, thats not a negative
if we assume that he literally ONLY uploaded raw data and no dynamic code,
there are still 2 other people who did more than her in the git project and his data uploading was still more useful than her contributions

>>10548042

>>10548042

I thought he did 94.44% of the work?

im not that anon, im not OP, i dont give a shit about his percentages being wrong you limp dicks
she didnt do anything important, stop tearing everyone around her down and admit shes near useless

>>10547972
>copypasting a bunch of data like a mindless ape is equal to doing 94.44% of the work

>the repo is the algorithm

These are all incorrect assumptions.

>>10548048
The main focus should be on how she wasn't the major contributor, but a random token code girl.

>>10548068
>random token code girl
Sure, if you forget the fact that the CHIRP algorithm is part of her PhD thesis on black hole imagery.
Not saying she did it all herself, but you can't base your assumption she did nothing of importance on anything but your idea that women are worthless.

>>10548086
I just don't like seeing one person undeservedly praised for a group project, in which there are many people contributed to it more than her. Using your family and media connections to seem above your colleagues is disgusting.

Is she at fault in any way for the undeserved attention she is receiving or is it just the media's fault?

>>10548402
Probably the latter and the advisor, Dr. William T. Freeman.

>>10548402
the media has a history of being horrible at reporting science because journalists tend to be dumb niggers

>>10548402
yes, the way this blew up on both plebbit and here,almost spontaneously means someone paid shills .
I pointed it out early on the day it was released and got instaban/mass reported by shills.
Either she bought those bots or its someone close to her.

The media coverage of this has been atrocious. Many of the articles even refer to her as an MIT grad student even though she got her PhD several years ago and works for some Harvard/Smithsonian thing now. They can't even get the most simple facts straight. Not to mention that they would be paying virtually no attention to this story if there wasn't a gender aspect for them to play off. If some white or asian guy did this you would have seen one article and would have been forgotten already.

Yes, she is:

KATIE BOUMAN Facebook post:
>"Watching in disbelief as the first image I ever made of a black hole was in the process of being reconstructed," she wrote in the caption to the Facebook post.

>>10548889
You can clearly see in that image it's not the same one they released

Listen here you little faggot or any other white knight cucks saying it's not her fault, its the media..
If this happened to me or any other decent human being what do you do?
You make an announcement and say: "Listen here guys, you got it all wrong. I did help but this guy did all the work."
Boom you set the record straight and get a huge reputation boost as a humble, decent human being.
Unless you are a stupid cunt, then you don't say anything and play along with the media circus.
Btw I am not saying she did or did not do all the work in this particular instance. I have no clue and don't really care enough to research it.

Nice world we got here.

>>10547972
I mean, it appears that she was on the research team who developed a lot of the structure around the algorithms, even though she might not have programmed the majority of it herself. As far as I'm concerned, the attention is deserved given that I'm not missing something here.

If she's the supposed lead, doesn't it make sense she codes less than her peons?

It says she worked on the algorithm, not coding directly. In a lot of ways the algorithm is more important than code itself.

>Completely ignoring her other posts and responses to the media

"I'm so excited that we finally get to share what we have been working on for the past year! The image shown today is the combination of images produced by multiple methods. No one algorithm or person made this image, it required the amazing talent of a team of scientists from around the globe and years of hard work to develop the instrument, data processing, imaging methods, and analysis techniques that were necessary to pull off this seemingly impossible feat. It has been truly an honor, and I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with you all."
or what she said to CNN
"No one of us could've done it alone, it came together because of lots of different people from many backgrounds."

No doubt she's getting more credit than is due, but the amount of seething incels who are going for her personally is ridiculous. I think MIT should get a fair share of the blame, they're the ones who have been giving out most of the praise and pushing her to the media

Seething incel. Nothing you ever do will take away your years-long depression, shame, and fear that you don’t have a girlfriend and never will. Might as well end it all, dude, right?

Japanese guy who is the co-leader of the American team is blaming MIT's twitter account for creating these misleading articles on Katie since MIT did not bother fact checking before tweeting

https://twitter.com/sparse_k/status/1116785802367918080

>A-1) Many articles implied that her algorithm from 2015 was specifically used to get the first reconstruction of a black hole when many of us generated the first images simultaneously with many different techniques; this was probably from misleading tweets by @MIT_CSAIL on 4/10

>(A-2) She is not at fault for these tweets; she was not involved in these tweets and she has nothing to do with them. I believe no one in the imaging group (even me at MIT) got contacted by them for fact checks.
