Just gladiated against a flock of white man taking the entire sidewalk while women were forced to take the streets. What a scene. So I said loud enough: “amazing, we are men, we take the entire sidewalk, fantastic” Why am I always the one that needs to get out of my way, even when I’m limping. #tech

Things only white men can offer us. What a privilege to be in the receiving end.

Tired. Elections. Tired Tired of hearing: why did she drink? Why they were not wearing a helmet? Quebec elections tomorrow. Hoping racists get less power than now.

Happens to many women that don’t have the resources to persecute. It happens close to you, you just don’t know how to see it or you explicitly avoid seeing it.

On the #cornell unraging case, this lawyer elucidates that it’s better to intervene and avoid a crime than being the witness on a litigation. So, men, if you cannot be moral, be at least practical. Do something before! Ladies and gentlemen, happens everyday. www.instagram.com/reel/Dd9NQKG...

It is PR and moving people using fear. There are so many concerns but these are masking the real ones and putting everyone in a great IPO spot.

@aircanada.bsky.social baggage handlers are my favourite. Thank you for taking awesome care of Hilma af Hampsten. Btw, I added a sticker to my box that says: ‘Hey crush, don’t crush’. I hope the humour was appreciated #montreal2026 #bikes

There was a time when a bad life choice was to party too hard, now it’s timing caffeine intake. Both bring a lot of regrets the morning after, but I prefer the former.

Things I learned to neglect since early age: asthma, noises, romance. Asthma sometimes reminds me of the little girl that could have cried in the corner, had she allowed herself to do so. Nothing inhaler, earplugs and Simone de Beauvoir cannot fix.

I’m so glad this is being done, despite the clown president. We need to talk more about dictatorships in the South, so we don’t repeat history.

Should I start a company doing bike computers? I’d have to sell AI with it to get funding. I guess the hardest part is offline routing. Hey Canada, what do you say?

On purpose, I didn’t read how to operate the Garmin computer because the #hci researcher in me wanted to see how intuitive the interface is. Mamma Mia, it’s awful. I’m so used to the intuitiveness of Apple design that this hurts. So much mental load, horrible ergonomics, ugly graphical interface.

My father, the worst person I know, came up with another pearl today: “I didn’t go to x’s funeral, they won’t go to mine.” He was being serious. And then people ask me how to I cope with bad people in tech, they are moot, compared to my father.

Stanford Mammography Center has lockers with names such as Rosa Parks, Simone Billes and so many great other women. Love it Remind yourself and the women you love to get tested (papi, mammogram). A nudge goes long ways. @stanfordpress.bsky.social

If people are tired of pro bike races like the Tour de France being decided even before it starts, maybe try following women's pro bike races, where the Tour de France Femmes has had a different winner each year since its launch. The race starts tomorrow! www.letourfemmes.fr/en/
A black-and-text image set against a plain white background containing two tables listing Tour de France winners. The top section, titled **Tour de France Femmes**, lists four winners with columns for **Year**, **Winner**, **Country**, and **Team**: 2025 winner Pauline Ferrand-Prévot (France, Visma–Lease a Bike), 2024 winner Kasia Niewiadoma (Poland, Canyon–SRAM Racing), 2023 winner Demi Vollering (Netherlands, Team SD Worx), and 2022 winner Annemiek van Vleuten (Netherlands, Movistar Team). Below it, the section titled **Tour de France** lists seven men's classification winners with identical column headers: 2026 winner Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia, UAE Team Emirates), 2025 winner Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia, UAE Team Emirates), 2024 winner Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia, UAE Team Emirates), 2023 winner Jonas Vingegaard (Denmark, Jumbo–Visma), 2022 winner Jonas Vingegaard (Denmark, Jumbo–Visma), 2021 winner Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia, UAE Team Emirates), and 2020 winner Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia, UAE Team Emirates).

Running shoes are the ugliest garment possible. I used to be cool and run on barefoot shoes, now I need to be gentle with baby nerves and weak calves. So, I’ll be wearing ugly as hell. I can still be cool though.

Reports of people queuing up to buy food on the stands following the Seattle shooting on a Food festival. It’s unthinkable to me to normalize this.

This game is always political. Las Malvinas are Argentinian. If it does not fix it, it gives people a venue to express their anger which is not violent.

If you say so? Correlation? causation? Confounds?. If one’s muscles can keep the party on, there may be fun. What about pain? What about ability to even being able to start? Dangerous isolated claims.

Women’s use of AI is perceived as a sign of incompetence, while men’s use of AI is seen as an indication of initiative. 🤦🏻‍♂️
forbes.com
Women Who Use AI Seen As Incompetent; Men Who Use AI Seen As Pragmatic
A 2026 study found that when women and men use AI tools to create identical resumes, evaluators view the women as less competent, while crediting the men with initiative.

A very peculiar playground in Uruguay.
Goats on a playground. While one is trying to climb in the playground platform, the other is being territorial and saying: you cannot pay in here. You read well… goats.
