A reminder of how we got here:
Echos of personality profiles selecting for "disinterest in people" are heard in former Googler's memo citing women's "stronger interest in people" as justification for lack of representation in tech.
Along the same lines, making programming instruction contingent on maths amounts to a "fake geek girl" test. If you didn't become a "software engineer" by way of college-level calculus, you have no right to be here.
I'm crying...

When I came out* to the group of friends I had 4 years ago, they spent all their time insulting and making fun of me, and eventually exiled me from being friends with them.
Which sucks, but... it means that when I met new people and started making new friends, I just told them my actual name, instead of my deadname, so the only people who deadname me at the moment are my family
