(Yes it was amazing.)

Now I am drinking earl grey tea in Starbucks and working through today's Spanish lessons on duolingo.

-
So tired of hearing stories from women about how they have worked in tech but never been allowed to /succeed/ in tech.
-
Your new senior engineer is on your team already, if you could only get the other engineers to listen to her.
-
It is almost impossible to do your job, demonstrate "leadership" & "technical depth" when the people who you work with won't listen to you.
-
The best advice I have for women on to career progression is: you are unlikely to get anywhere when your colleagues treat you like shit.
-
If you are underrep in tech and reading these tweets thinking "it me" my DMs are open and I will help you if I can.
-
I talked about some of this stuff on lessthanorequal with Aleen and I would love it if you listened to it. relay.fm/ltoe/81
-
Yes. Who don't tell you things. Or leave you out of decisions. k_ramali/705577697276268548
-
Sure and let's be clear: as a manager your job is to set your team up to succeed. This is your responsibility. nettsnook/705578405085859841
-
Feministy we should talk about those feels in Detroit 💜
-
Feministy me tooooooooi
-
Final thought: when I hear these stories the first question I ask is "what the fuck was your manager doing". Answers fall into 2 categories.
-
1) Making things worse. This includes victim blaming and gas lighting. Telling women how to be different, or pretending it's not happening.
-
2) writing code. I wish I got to write more code. But if you prioritize code over managing maybe you shouldn't be a manager.
-
The health of your team and the emotional well being of your direct reports should be more important than your self-identity as a "coder".
-
This is the job.

I'm sure it's possible to support Bernie without being a raging misogynist and from what I gather, more people should try that.
-
It is not surprising to me how much misogyny comes out when people disagree with a woman, but I am amazed by how blatant a lot of it is.
-
Anyway I am not an American so I have no opinion other than trump shouldn't have access to nuclear weapons or any kind of military force.

Okay I lean slightly to Hilary on basis of no research; I just think she is incredibly brave and I would love to see a woman president.

I have arrived at the aquarium. I showed the cashier the Jezebel article and she confirmed that it was this aquarium.
-
Although she warned that #feministshark had finished snacking on annoying male shark. Which I knew. Probably I would prefer not to see that.
-
I think the last time I went to an aquariums I was with the guy I was seeing at the time, we made out in the shark tank.
-
I miss when I used to make out with men in interesting places.
-
Anyway. I'm sure this trip to the aquarium will be just as good. Albeit in a very different way.

Super excited to see the DMZ today! Tbt that time I saw it from the other side: catehuston.com/blog/2013/09/23/north-korea-july-2013-day-4/
-
I heard it was way more uptight on this side and so far that is definitely the case. Guide warns us we are lucky! Tour could close tomorrow.
-
No photos of military (NK we had to ask, some said yes) and no photos of the north, but I guess I took photos of the north when I was there.

Ai looks like I cannot get on this tour unless I change my flight. I'm about to cry.
-
Certain I will not be allowed to change my flight. For reasons I don't understand (latent optimism?) I'm on hold with AirCanada anyway.
-
It is of course obscenely expensive and requires rebooking my entire trip back to CO. Fuck. I guess I have to come back to SK?
-
Pretty much in tears over this which seems a little irrational.
-
Okay I am going on Friday. Taking a detour with all my worldly possessions. Then will cab to the airport. This will probably be fine.
-
The tour guy was like "this will be very expensive" and I was like "cheaper than coming back to SK."
-
Also tbqh probably still cheaper than when I met a hedgehog for the first time. Achieving life goals costs $$, yo.

ashedryden I am hiring remote senior x-platform mobile, ESTish though. Cate AT ride DOT com
-
As someone who worked on G+ a long time ago, I have some thoughts on this whole moot thing.
-
The PM used to show a picture of the "mobile team", all men, mostly white, on their phones and joke "yes we're social".
-
To me this seemed like a risk, that missed so many points. But that was during Phase 1: the idea that technical superiority would win.
-
We know that didn't work, but the surprise is that anyone thought it would.
-
Phase 2 was this idea of social as infrastructure. But being "social" is not infrastructure, it is fundamental to being human.
-
(Note: infrastructure, technical superiority - both things that Google thinks they understand).
-
This I guess is some indication of a 3rd phase, which recognises communities are made of humans.
-
And maybe also recognises that data is insufficient. Data tells you what, not why. You can A/B test shades of blue, not so much humanity.
-
And I guess they still DGAF whether that community is welcoming to women, minorities, but then... why start now?
-
Finally responded to email meaningfully for the first time since err... January. I feel like an adult. Can I go out and play now?

These pictures are by Pen Varlen. A soviet-Russian - Korean. He was accredited to North Korea by the Soviet ministry of culture in in 1953.
-
For 15 months he worked on re-establishing the Pyongyang university of fine arts, and connecting with artists in NK.
-
After returning to Russia he was prohibited from ever returning to NK. Many of the pictures in this exhibit were produced in Leningrad.
-
Saddest sentence so I quote directly, "longing for his homeland to which he could never return."
-
"Imbued in these realistic and highly detailed images of pine trees are nostalgia, intrinsic tension, and solidarity... of a diaspora."
-

I laughed. I cried. Brilliant and damning, iwasleeg - "In which I interview so you don’t have to" - buff.ly/1nYFJe3
-
I hate dating metaphors for interviewing because dating is very inefficient and also I am horrible at it.
-
Also I worry my ability to be a good interviewer is borderline sociopathic in the level of applied humaning it involves.
-
Anyway that doesn't make me seem like the kind of person anyone would want to go on a date with. Which might explain some things.
-
pjux YES also this. So important.
-
nkkl hahaha maybe ;)
-
pjux yeah also depends how people will respond to that. I need to blog about my recruiting strategy of radical honesty.
-
msfionatay yes and that is good advice! Also asking questions is good!!
-
pjux yes this is a hiring manager strategy rather than IC coding but do use it there too.
-
pjux Urgh well I did those interviews and that work environment and let's just say... I am grateful for the pedigree and the learning curve
-
pjux but never again
-
MusingMurmurs do you need anything before your talk? Water? Snack?
-
As someone who works REALLY HARD to be a good interviewer I am finding this talk on how to interview really distressing. #wwconnect2016
-
Full of good advice but it's tragic has to be given. Like e.g. Managing your interviewer which lets get real - because they are inept at it.
-
earthabbey on the work I do?
-
petrillic yep
-
petrillic yes for sure.

petrillic we outsourced our interviewing prep guide.

petrillic including a bunch of stuff I have written about how to interview well.
-

-
monacate was surprised by the answer given how men have reacted to some questions I have asked as an INTERVIEWER. Like pls write this code.
-
triketora ooh those were quotes from a book I must buy and read this book. I have some planes coming up.
-
I have a lot of affection for women's events but stuff happens like yesterday this woman said I would change my mind about not wanting kids.
-
Lady, you don't know shit about me. So don't imply - or outright say - that kind of stuff. I was really pissed.
-
One problem with women's events is that we think being women means we understand each other's experiences and this is not necessarily true.

r343l no I'm fine I have a lot of tea and I will have to take some with me when I go South in May.

It's not even 930 and I have already had two conversations about star wars what is happening to me please send help.
-
geekygirlsarah no no no the opposite of that the opposite
-
geekygirlsarah now I am even more confused.
-
Talking to roba90 about my birthday we agree cupcakes, but I would also like a grover to stroke my hair and tell me everything will be OK.
-
By the sounds of it the cupcate's will be everything I dream of but I have to make some serious compromises on the Grover.
-
ALL I WANT for my birthday is a Grover to stroke my hair & tell me everything will be OK. Surely one of you loves me enough to arrange this.
-
plragde good hair stroking probably of higher importance tbh
-
marcprecipice geekygirlsarah I suspect this is a star wars reference but I cannot be sure.
-
Eulerizeit actually in NYC so grover-adjacent.
-
geekygirlsarah I'm not generally into movies about people murdering each other, regardless of whether or not they are set in space?

geekygirlsarah meh a lot of people seem to die in the middle.

geekygirlsarah there was a LOT of murdering! A lot! I don't like movies or books where people die!
-

geekygirlsarah errr or even more accurate now I direct my team to kill them mwhahahaha
-
Last week did something deeply weird. Involved constructing a fake identity and accidentally giving someone the impression I have a pet owl.
-
If I don't do anything quite that odd this week I will consider it a win.
-
geekygirlsarah the guy who killed his father? 💔 I love my dad and we have a normal relationship!
-
Maximum winning would of course he actually having a pet owl but I don't think I will ever be that cool.
-
geekygirlsarah was Kylo ren not the super emo dude who got all Whiney and then murderey?

PSA: There will be no issue of techspeakdigest tomorrow because we don't have a sponsor. We'll be back next week.
-
Really important to chiuki & I this is a sustainable project; because of the amount of work and how we want to do it, it's not without $.
-
So if you benefit from it, think about asking your company to allocate $250 to help us keep helping you with your professional development.
-
(Get 140 characters to share anything you want! >>2300 subscribers. Job postings welcome! Our readers are awesome - you want to hire them)
-
Honestly it was super jarring to me to hear all weekend how much people benefit from techspeakdigest when sponsorship so quiet lately.
-
So tomorrow we are on strike. I know, how incredibly European of us! We'll miss y'all but I think it's important to make this point.

-
aliciatweet techspeakdigest thanks 💜
-
OK I am gonna have some more feelings at you.
-
One reason why I quit corporate feminism is that I resist being forced to do thankless things for "the collective".
-
And I think one of the many harmful things about the current convo about "diversity" is now that we as communities demand this too.
-
We are on strike because we believe projects that consider inclusivity, consider women first class consumers have to be sustainable, too.
-
And this means that people have to pay for them. Because thankless emotional labour is not sustainable. In companies or communities.
-
I don't believe sustainable projects run on donation model, & I also don't think we should have to - objectively, we are popular, should be.
-
But consistently we see that when we are branded as a "diversity" project our sponsorship levels drop. Because "diversity" should be free.
-
We disagree.
-
And, btw, techspeakdigest is not "for women". It's for everyone who is interested in public speaking in tech.
-
Just, for once, "everybody" includes women. And NB. And PoC. And everybody because WELL ACTUALLY EVERYBODY for once.
-
Maybe think about why it is that project run by women with this in mind is automatically "diversity" and devalued.
-
And then go to your colleagues and say "hey I get a lot of benefit from this, maybe you would like it, and btw we should sponsor it".

My coworkers are also smart people but like, I have learned that how "smart" people are isn't the biggest part of how people are to work w/.
-
I can't help but think how much worse would be to lockdown working in environment where people would ask "what did you do to deserve this?"
-
Instead I got "are you okay?" "What do you need?" And "I'm sorry" and let me tell you, it's everything.

Hello new home. Door to door ~24 hours and somehow I did not food today.
-
Now I am back up the fiery mountain I need to get back on my 5L/day drinking program. Coconut lemonade, how I have missed you.

Has anyone seen a good critique of the moldbug situ and the complete nonsense lambda conf is spouting? Want to include in techspeakdigest
-
Eulerizeit hadn't seen that but literally cannot with someone who says "I am not a racist". Structural racism affects everyone.
-
plragde thanks!
-
I have found a new favorite food. If you come visit me in Medellin we can eat it together.

skamille a mushroom pate

lara_hogan skamille come visit and we will eat it.

skamille omg yes. This.

So far today I have lost dantoml and accidentally poured boiling water on them so I feel like I am inspiring confidence as a leader.

I miss the external validation of public Twitter but... Oh actually I don't really feel safer at all.

RT hmason: In NYC on April 28th? Run a data team? Join us for the first FastForwardLabs Data Leadership conference! https://t.co/mziBJY9J…
-
For research purposes I'm finally reading that drivel apologia about lambda conf and this jumped out "Some attendees are amoral atheists".
-
Like wtf, I'm pretty quiet about being atheist because so many threw out the books and kept the raging misogyny, but what the actual fuck.
-
Which reminds me of how many times I've heard that cocoa conf is fine w/o a CoC because the founders are so religious - specifically xtian.
-
There's so many problems with that, not least of which is the racism inherent in xtian good and other religions likely terrorist.
-
But I'm gonna end with this: religion doesn't mean shit when it comes to morality. In any direction.
-
queersorceress if you wrote a blog post I would be very excited to read it :)
-
OK I unlocked twitter because that was a good rant and y'all should be able to retweet it.
-
Aleen apparently they have some kinda half-assed one now.
-
seancllns queersorceress he's a complete shithead. Oh wait, so am I. So that is not insulting.
-
jbeda statistically atheists are less likely to commit crimes, but it's hard to separate from higher levels of education.
-
sharonw well not everyone knows. But personally I would not go, or recommend it.
-
queersorceress right!
-
r343l i mean the accident was really going into the apple store. I knew what would happen if I got there.
-
r343l haha <3
-
Still reading this post. IDK why. Really it's an illustration of why "diversity of thought" as a phrase makes me want to stab people.
-
A more accurate phrase might be "diversity of critical thinking", "diversity of respect for humanity", "diversity of awareness of history".
-
I cannot with this "there are two sides" to the argument thing. Like a wall has two sides, but maybe one side is covered in nails?
-
Or like "well both sides got hurt", what if someone punched you in the face and then fell over his own shoelaces? You both got hurt. Right?
-
coxn thanks
-
BR3NDA who knows.
-
I got to the end. One more point: the focus is on "safety" and not on "welcoming". It's about plausible deniability rather than inclusivity.
-
I will tell you that a lot of conferences out there are aiming higher than safety, they are aiming for welcome, for real inclusion.
-
If safety is enough for you then cool. If you want something more, then there are so many events that would be lucky to have you there.
-
And if you're a speaker thinking about pulling out, my DMs are open - if you think I can help you, get in touch, I will if I can.

Kusand techspeakdigest we are thinking but don't in general believe that donation models are sustainable.
-
@schneidsDotNet techspeakdigest actually, striking was very effective on a number of metrics and we feel made an important point.
-
@schneidsDotNet techspeakdigest so that is the point of striking? Right? Disruption? And ultimately our subscribers lose out the most if...
-
@schneidsDotNet techspeakdigest we have to shut the project down because it's unsustainable.
-
