Life starts happening again and it’s amazing to be out in the world! And even more exciting that I got to share the evening w Dona Sarkar !!!

1/People are asking why at conferences like #MSIgnite, we do a description of ourselves (I’m an Asian woman wearing a floral dress etc). It’s to create an equitable experience for blind/low-vision folk or those who aren’t looking at the screen.

Last minute gift! Highly recommended this organization (high quality use of non profit $) and the tweets bring me joy all year Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

I love this thread @norootcause.surfingcomplexity.com on Bluesky. It’s a great guide to how to think about a career, or career change to CS. It is about problem solving and autonomy and that is why it’s so cool. Scott Hanselman 🌮 Thomas Dohmke

Love dogs? Please consider reading and donating to this professional dog sled team dealing with the aftermath of a horrible human who caused a horrible accident.

Oh my gosh. Fingers crossed for a miracle. This house is in next neighborhood over and assumed dogs were crushed in collapse days ago . #uglydogs 🙏🏽

I needed this! TL;DR- house collapse last week and dogs presumed dead. Found alive!!

On MLK Day I reflect on the 1963 "I have a dream speech". His unpopular post '63 and loud voice on income equality, voter rights, poverty, justice, war and socialism were his real legacy. #MLKDay2022

Beware, your heart may just melt at the very sight of this adorable Newfie mix named Oswald. 😍 Oswald's favorite things are treats and baby talk. Our favorite things about Oswald are his tiny little salt & pepper toes, and his whole body wiggles. Adopt: kitsap-humane.org/adopt/availabl…

"Seed Corn Must Not Be Ground" final lithograph of Käthe Kollwitz, 1942. The death of her son in battle in 1914 profoundly affected the artist, who expressed her grief by creating many prints on the theme of mothers protecting their children from the horrors of war #WomensArt

The umbrella, 1883 by Ukrainian born painter Marie Bashkirtseff. #WomensArt

💔If you have a team or colleague in Europe, reach out. My team in Poland in 2014 taught me so much about the regional interplay and their own personal history. If you work in tech remember there are 200k developers in Ukraine. Praying for them and the world today.

Still sitting with how powerful this moment is to #America #BlackWomen and this makes me hopeful the next generation of “outsiders” doesn’t feel that weight of otherness. We all belong in these spaces #Persevere ! nbcdfw.com/news/national-…

Devs are the engine of "dig transformation", leaders must shift thinking towards ..."Retaining top talent requires an environment where developers are treated like innovators, not code writers, and are active participants in the business." zdnet.com/article/time-t…
