@jerry many years ago I had the privilege of being an exec sponsor for the NSAs LGBTQ ERG (wow loads of caps).. unlike what I've seen across private industry, the ERG was no social club. The group tackled real policy issues and drove increased understanding across the workforce. The ERG members were fearless and amazing. Management across the board supported all of our ERGs and other diversity groups. Super proud to have done nothing and got a trophy anyhow. Lol.

I was the 10th woman PhD mathematician hired by the NSA. Tons of dedication to increase more women and minorities in math at all levels of education was a priority in the community at the time..and it paid off.. making a difference both in government and across academia. Also super proud to have seen so many people get education and career opportunities from these efforts.

Now I have been on the 'outside' for several years, I'm hoping they stay strong and stay the course...

Can y’all share positive DEI stories because I’m getting tired of DEI stories in the news?

Mother, why do you mock us?

Gonna re-repost my article from yesterday as a treat because it really condenses a dozen things i care about and said before

A gaming CEO recently went mask off chud, tarnishing the image of a game i like in the process

In this, i discuss what engaging with the complexity of gender in games where you can create your character should mean - and it doesn’t mean simply changing language.

watching a YouTube short about poaching large quantities of eggs, and the chef says that he steams them at 63 degrees [Celsius] for 45 minutes.

top comment:

For those wondering, 63° is 7π/20 radians.

interesting, Safari now outright refuses to load websites that use TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0, or RSA <= 1024

with no way to bypass

My daughter is collecting data on people's pineapple on pizza preferences, if you would be so kind as to answer, this will help to move us past this impasse, even if there is some bandwagoning involved

As a programmer slash reverse engineer with two decades of experience, I have seen many things. But today I saw something new. A full SaaS application with its entire backend interface built as … a single <canvas> tag.

That’s right, everything — user/permission management, uploaded file browser, system configuration screens — everything is painstakingly drawn programmatically as individual shapes and texts. Thank fuck I’m here as a user and not a developer.
