As for lady Ada ...
 
She saw further than anybody else what software would be about.
 
Now, imagine an alternate universe where she hadn’t died young. Imagine
that Charles Babbage hadn’t completely failed at building his Analytical
Engine. (Only it was called the “Difference Engine”, for some inexplicable
reason.)
 
Now imagine that the two of them get together to fight crime...

Analytical Engine and Difference Engine were two different things, IIRC.  I
can’t keep them straight, but I believe one was partially completed and did
useful work with (maybe) log tables. The other was built, or is being
built, currently from the original plans.
