I'll be speaking Thursday at the online #opensourcesecuritysummit about Cult of the Dead Cow and why ethical work in software is more possible and more important than ever. This is a FREE event, with no cost to you the consumer. Hope to see you there!

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it may ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

I think it's important to keep in mind that the men who denigrate, manipulate, coerce and attack often target women who are vulnerable and have more to lose by speaking out than staying silent. Many of them are perfectly nice to women who hold more power than they do.
