Today we talked about the three main definitions of computer science, mentioned how they sometimes overlap and sometimes conflict (leading to confusion and tension), as well as the common definitions for race and ethnicity, and then talked about why this matters in computer science - any time you write code that impacts the real world, it is important to test your code on different groups to make sure it doesn't have disparate impact on them.
