Hmm... Not great... I know its just a word, but, it's not at all inclusive, and worse can rightly be a trigger for some too. There are so many better words to use, I like @shanselman's "friends", I tend to just use "everyone". Being "used to saying" something is at best lazy.

Your beliefs aren't others' experiences. It reflects an absence of inclusion in the perspective (but perhaps not intention) of the user. It is uncomfortable even if it is not directly offensive.

To @pete_codes and every single one of our supporters and allies, thank you for learning and choosing to stop saying words like guys because you believe in helping others 🧡

Friends don't let friends... Use the word "Guys" when addressing a mixed gender room... Infact, just don't use the word "Guys" at all...

I still need to find some dielectric grease before I can build it, but I’m already incredibly excited about my new keyboard. Hear how clicky this switch is 🥰

Just spoken to my son who is a student in Scotland. They are now not allowed to visit each other’s flats, banned from going to pubs & all tuition is online. So they’re getting in debt paying huge amounts of rent & fees to stay imprisoned in their rooms. This can’t be right

Maybe I need to write a blog post called "On Call For Managers". If you're asking engineers to be on call for their code -- and you should -- you owe in return: - enough time to fix what's broken - hands to do the work - closely track how often they are interrupted/woken - ..etc

It would've been yesterday for @DevOpsDaysLDN 2020 as I reminisce about 2019 when @rjw1 was on his #bobinjapan adventures and I joined OOH support rota. Can't believe a year has flown by so quickly ☁️

My personal fave is to make sure I always report any bugs I find cause I think they’re unaware of them. As if there’s not a developer really pissed off already that this easy fix bug still hasn’t been prioritised after months 😅

It's so common to pick up transmissible diseases in UK universities that there's a name for it that everyone knows, Freshers' flu. It has a wikipedia page, it has an NHS page, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY'VE ALLOWED FRESHERS' FLU TO BE COVID

Post details

Glasgow University has confirmed they are aware of two significant clusters of Covid-19 in their student accommodation buildings. They say the number of cases since the start of term is 124 but “the actual number is likely to be higher”. 600+ students are self-isolating.

Got a lot to thank Boris Johnson for tonight. In my desperate quest for popcorn to get through his speech I found some M&M Easter mini eggs in the back of the baking cupboard.

Boris Johnson blaming rule-breakers. Weird how everyone stopped obeying the rules at the exact same time schools reopened and everyone was paid to eat at Nando’s and told to get back to work or risk getting fired from their jobs they'd been successfully performing from home.
