This article on the Space Shuttle software team is a wonderful contrast to the stereotypes (often valid) of people who work in Silicon Valley: http://www.fastcompany.com/28121/they-write-right-stuff. I think the contrast between the team described in the article (older, mix gender, often married with kids), and the roomful of young men who coded in high school is extremely relevant to this issue.
