On Sunday mornings we like to sit in the bedroom window and look for Audrey* 💁🏻‍♀️ *Plot twist: Audrey was behind us the whole time.

Continuing my new series inspired by the CA wildfires. For weeks ashes rained down from the skies, the air became hazardous and all I could do was stay home and dream about being able to just breathe again.

My wife got this papoose/sling thing for our ridiculously spoiled cat and now when we're cooking the cat throws temper tantrums and the only way to make her stop is to break out the cat bag and let her ride in it.

I JUST FOUND OUT WHAT “RAIL ME” MEANS. I THOUGHT IT MEANT I’LL HIT YOU WITH A TRAIN. I’VE BEEN GOING AROUND TELLING PEOPLE “SHUT UP OR I’LL RAIL YOU”. NO NO NO I HATE ALL OF YOU.

A thing I don't see talked about much is the loneliness of seniority. It's hard to find people to bounce ideas off of, especially being back at a tiny company. Community Slacks are nice but when you're off in weird niche land, peers are hard to find and it's sad.

Why not do both, actions and words. People are telling you that the word guys makes them feel excluded. So start with actions, such as listening to them and believing them and then words, like saying "people" or "folks". The decision to ignore them is itself an action.

How it is acceptable to communicate, particularly when it comes to nouns that refer to groups of people, change over time. What's arbitrary is where you are choosing to dig your heels in.

The language you use is a part of being inclusive, you cannot separate the two. This is such an obvious point I'm surprised I have to make it. When you refer to a group as "guys" you are by the dictionary definition of that word excluding people, which is not inclusive.

People look to you as a leader. In using language like this you set a standard that others will follow. You send the message that such language is acceptable, that men are the default and those who are not men are secondary and that affects how people who look to you behave.

I’ve recently started substituting “guys” for “folks”. It’s not easy to change the habit of a lifetime, but it comes at no cost to me, I’ll keep at it.

oh it's simple. you write the app, then you write the dockerfile. then you write the helm chart. then you write the deployment to describe the helm chart which describes the deployment for the containerized app. In this simple tutorial, we will launch a hello world app.. 1/496

There are plenty of words you won’t use because other people might find them offensive. Adapting how we present our messages to ensure they are received in the spirit they intended is a basic communication skill. Why wouldn’t you do this for the word “guys”?

Andrew Seward (@MrAndrew)Sat, 26 Sep 2020 15:13 +0000

Don't use the word "simple" to describe how to do something, especially if you don't know how to do it yourself. What's simple to you isn't necessarily simple to someone else.

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.
