When being interviewed when asked "what makes a good engineer?" I always answer "The ability to have empathy for people's challenges".

To my comment on the word "P*ki" being unacceptable and not banter, here are some responses on Linked In. People with their job titles clearly in the public domain and zero issues with defending the use of the term Good morning to you all.

i often think about how a lot of programming is running into the same bugs over and over again, and how being exposed to common bugs (and being shown how to handle them!) gives you a huge advantage

If I have learned anything in my 40+ years on earth it is that whenever a white man tells me I need to relax, not be paranoid, calm down, that I absolutely should not

First Last is a Title at Company best known for Achievement. Pronouns works on Project and values Thing in Project. Name focuses on Feature because Reason. Name enjoys Activity when Pronouns are not Summary of Job.

Many women in tech have multiple stories of experiencing misconduct. What Ashley experienced at Apple is shocking and likely reflects the reality of many others who aren’t in the position to speak out.

Every few weeks I like to remind everyone that my #Apple boss, a senior director, pressured me to sleep with a strange man so my boss could get better service at his favorite Michelin Star restaurant. twitter.com/ashleygjovik/s…

Weird, rich white guy has a bunch of indentured servants in jumpsuits working for him, after inviting a bunch of other people to compete with each other for some prize at the end, while they navigate several unsafe obstacles. twitter.com/ericajoy/statu…

Having worked in open source for a majority of my career now, I can say that the “just send a pull request” meme downplays the cost of software maintenance. Maintainers need to deal with the ramifications of supporting this change when the contributor has moved on #oss

Brogrammer culture is such a toxic thing. I despise it, and I loath all who are part of it or who defend it.

The problem with learning from experts is that they are so far removed from square one. Their material assumes some foundational knowledge. Newbies, don't be afraid to share what you're learning. From the beginning. We - even the experts - need your fresh perspective!

Women and girls should not have to take the responsibility of ensuring they aren’t raped or sexually assaulted. That is not how that works.

I used “not male” in a survey and I received absolutely no lashings. Trying to be inclusive of an underrepresented gender portion of the gender spectrum should not be this difficult. “Women and folks often misgendered as women” doesn’t always fit in 280 characters.

Reading this thread made me so sad. Thing is, I know countless girls and women who have stories just like this one. Honestly heartbreaking. I’m so glad that she helped. Let’s teach boys/men not to be predators, how about that? Fuck sake.

My blood is boiling! I was doing my run and I felt a schoolgirl tap me on the shoulder. Silly me thought I dropped something but she was shaking and told me a creepy old man had been following her in a car and she begged me to walk with her on the way to school….

Stop writing “competitive salary” on job posting. It literally means nothing.

The problem with this country is people who make $700 per hour have convinced people who make $25 per hour that people who make $7.25 per hour are the problem.

We need to start normalizing that software engineering can be a 9-to-5 job. It's ok to not live, eat, and breathe tech 24/7. It's ok to be in tech bc it's a lucrative job that pays the bills. You don't need to be passionate about tech to be in tech.

No, it IS a bad look if you continue playing Activision games after this. Blah blah blah no ethical consumption under capitalism but video games are a choice, not a basic necessity. There are plenty other games to play. You're supporting abusers.
