I think all the time about what my life would have been like if I had been born a boy. If I was praised for my leadership abilities instead of getting in trouble for being bossy. If I hadn’t been harassed out of the computer science department. I think I would have taken over the world by now

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

I can understand why the features of a supposed AI assistant are compelling. I kinda wanna try it too. But I know too much about how these things work. Do not give a cloud-based agent access to your shit. Especially one from the big tech companies.

This is why you need #testers when you write software 🤦‍♀️ My health insurance gives me 20 euros for new #running shoes if I run 10k / 90 minutes per week for 8 in 10 weeks. I have more than met both goals, yet the app says “didn’t make it ✅” 🤦‍♀️ Probably, because the week isn’t over yet. 😂 #coding
Picture of a health insurance app (as screenshots are forbidden) showing two progress bars that are completed and have green checkmarks. “100/100%” and a bold “Nicht geschafft” (didn’t make it/didn’t meet the goal) with its own checkmark beside it.

I ran 311 out of 90 minutes and 35.57 out of 10 kilometers.

Who takes the notes, organises the dinner? Who carries the mental load of planning, anticipating what needs to happen? These seemingly small tasks add up, taking time and energy that could otherwise go towards more visible opportunities. These experiences are not the same for everyone.

Women's Equality Day is a good opportunity to ask a simple question: Are we actually creating equal opportunities or are we only removing the most visible barriers? Equality is also about the work we do not always notice.

Mass surveillance is not the same thing as mass public recording. People aren't against the second thing. They just want to have a say in how it's used. I'm glad people started recording racist cops. I'm glad people started recording Karens harassing Black people.

People are more mad about AI than they are about this. Not saying they're okay with this. But they think AI is worse and worth way more anger and backlash. I disagree. Mass surveillance in the hands of private companies who also cooperate with govt is catastrophic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pl91...

An absolutely baffling part of it all is how they turn to you and say "see? This is proof that Cambridge has gone fully woke and DEI is running the organization", but then when you look at the facts, we're talking about an org with 0.4% of Black professors.

Jerry Falade and Jason Arday are two sides of the same coin: a Black person can’t be this smart, so it must be plagiarism/AI/pick-your-poison. AI will make this worse. Every Black intellectual achievement can be dismissed as Claude/ChatGPT with no evidence while the accused suffers the damage.
