💯 accountability culture is a culture of care. Accountability is how we grow and express empathy — I can’t imagine a healthy workplace without it.

This is awesome stuff from Glitch and I hope it'll get some good adoption over tools like Linktree!
We've let the web shrink down to one puny "link in bio" on your social media profile, with services trying to charge you money for *links*! So we're fixing that at @Glitch, with the new FREE Glitch In Bio — a links page that does anything the web can do. glitch.com/glitch-in-bioAnil Dash (@anildash)Tue, 16 Nov 2021 19:45 GMT

We have normalised taking pictures and videos of people without consent. We’ve made it socially acceptable to capture strangers going about their day to post to audiences that they themselves are unaware they’re “entertaining”. There is an entitlement to these actions.

It strikes me as a weird contrast when people wear poppies on the tube but not masks? Respect for the dead but not the living

How about instead of telling women to ignore the men who harass them, we consider how fucked up it is that men feel entitled to our attention, entitled to punish us for not giving it until we do, and enabled by a society that blames women for the way men treat them in either case

This is a really interesting podcast, but this quote from Dan Moore got me:
"the value of software to reduce human misery"
I really do hope that we can all see it like so, and strive to make changes that actively improve folks' lives!

Things like this, and very slow build/test/deploy lifecycles are pretty low-hanging fruit - makes a huge difference, as well as making your teams happier!
We recently found that the new 2021 M1 MacBooks cut our Android build times in half. So for a team of 9, $32k of laptops will actually save $100k in productivity over 2022. The break-even point happens at 3 months. TL;DR Engineering hours are much more expensive than laptops!Jameson (@softwarejameson)Wed, 03 Nov 2021 18:52 GMT
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

I'm very happy to step up - it's a great plugin and I'd love to help continue the great work that @daspilker has done over the years 👏🏽
Thanks to @JamieTanna for stepping up up as a @jenkinsci JobDSL plugin maintainer! And kudos to @daspilker for leading it for almost ten years 🙇 JobDSL is one of the well documented and stable plugins and it is also essential for the configuration as code ecosystem in JenkinsPost details
Just to update on this - I'm a maintainer now, it's been released as 1.78 this morning, and I'll see over the coming weeks if there's anything other high-priority to ship 🚀 (jvt.me/mf2/2021/10/jy…)

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.

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.

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.Post details

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.
