Women's domestic enslavement was a wonderful thing.
Did I miss something, or does this article say that, for example, if one parent lost 5 children, that means that on average 5 parents lost 1 child each? It's an interesting topic and the recent bumps on the graph have…
My grandma had cancer. A doctor had ignored her complaining of throat pain for too long, and it didn't look good. The doctor who told us chemo was an option was pushing my grandma really hard to just go ahead and die…
No, I mean I don't get promoted for trying to hear what other people say, while managers can't say enough nice things about the hipster-ass who breaks everything he touches trying to turn it into GraphQL no matter what.…
it was probably mostly because "everyone's doing it", but i'm glad we did. a little harder to bail when the going gets tough when the in-laws' friends have given you a cuisinart. ;)
I didn't want kids until I was 14 and my mom had an oopsie-baby. The intense love I felt for my baby sister changed my mind. And I wasn't wrong -- despite many, many, many drawbacks to having children, I love them just…
Everyone's goals vary, but I got married because I wanted kids and I wanted help raising them from someone with a vested interest in doing so.
I'm not sure I could identify my "core values" in a crowd -- where I feel lucky is in the "healthy discussions". My husband and I don't hit each other with too many of the Four Horsemen:…
I personally love me some alone time, but yeah, as a lady, tech is a little too lonely even for me. Something that I think would help is if the social types in the engineering department (often men!) would post…
>a baby; wife doesn't work currently. As a favor to you, let me note that whatever your job is, your wife works harder than you do.
Given that another comment says she "suddenly" crossed three lanes of traffic and was on the far side of the car when she was hit, my suspicion is that the car thought she was riding the bike. Of course all of us…
>This could have been any of us. Not me! I know I'm not biologically ill-suited to geek out.
Or any woman, apparently, since the author never met one who has a pile of electronic components stored away for some day.
Why would Ajit Pai care what we think? How much money have we given the GOP? What kushy job do we have lined up for him if he does what we want?
I enjoy making things with code. I like earning a check. Why do you stay in your job? It makes me sad to think my kids will think I didn't do enough for them one day, but dads have been working full-time for ages.…
The policies are better than nothing, because you meet people facing the same biases you do and realize you aren't a lunatic weirdo. But in my utopia, everyone takes the implicit associations tests, has the courage to…
Of course your sister should make her own choices, but the pressure on a mom in tech to leave is still absolutely immense. The more of us who tough it out, the better for our daughters.
Where "fun" is defined by people who got funding. http://fortune.com/2017/03/13/female-founders-venture-capita...
I like having events where women can get together without getting hit on or talked down to and where you've often encountered the same kinds of problems. However. At my last job, there was just constant pressure from HR…
It's been said already, but these products were destroyed by support-forum-as-documentation. You can get a light blinking on an Arduino in five minutes. On the Edison, it took all my free time for a couple days to even…
The fact that I'm seeing your comment at all suggests they've improved in the last few years. This is the first time I've bothered to comment on HN, as a woman interested in the topic of "Women in Tech" in ages, because…
Alternately, also as a woman in tech, we could expect employers not to lump us all together and to judge men who resort to using slurs more harshly than women who don't like having slurs used against them.
Republicans cherry-picked the data. The IRS targeted liberal groups more, based on the information we have. http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2014/04/23/3429722/irs-rec...
They targeted progressive groups to a greater extent, based on the information we have. http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2014/04/23/3429722/irs-rec...
