I think silos have worsened things, partly--in the 1990s "front end" was not an automatic dismissal of competence amongst folks who set up artificial gates. (At the same time, no one is really truly full stack.) I think there are more employed women who code, by percentage of the active workforce, but we don't necessarily retain them well, versus feeding a bunch of excited young folks in and then burning them out in early employment instead of (for my era) in high school or college. bah. I dunno.
