Put your hand up if you’re a women in tech and you’ve had this conversation at some point in your career. Lemme tell you it don’t feel good OR believable if your friends tell you they know YOU’RE a good programmer but they don’t want to see more “diversity hires”.

Last week I attended @TechLeadLadies hybrid event where @shelleglee did an amazing talk on challenges faced and actions we can take to increase the number of women in tech leadership roles- I wanted more succinct notes but the talk was so good didn’t want to leave things out!

2. Be your biggest advocate. Do not depend on others to notice you're doing a good job. You show then TELL them you're killing it! Unfortunately, modesty and humility work against us. Don't be arrogant, but do be confident.

Love this tip! ♥️ Building a great culture is intentional and full of regular small actions like this.
Pairing off for one-on-one coffees after stand up can be a great way to get people who don’t usually talk to talk! Follow ReBoot Co. #standup #engage #trust for more daily tips!

So 2 weeks ago, world-famous @lofigirl's streams were taken down due to a spurious copyright claim. The claims were revoked and the streams restarted, but the old streams were archived, creating the two longest videos on @YouTube at-present, each more than 20 thousands hours long

Let's consider the productivity increases of politicians. They have never sat fewer days, yet their pay has gone up. Still the PM says minimum wage workers & aged care workers should not get an increase smh.com.au/politics/federal/…
