I gave a friend some Moneyball hiring advice a few months ago. He's a hiring manager at a tech startup and was looking to grow the team.

Today, I woke up to this message: "My team is now 50% women" 🤩

Last week I failed a Product Design / Verbal Reasoning test for a senior role. Today I wrote an email reasoning why I firmly believe that these tests exclude perfectly good professionals.

Here’s the email – feel free to use it should you need it.

Never ceases to vex me how men are whining online about the appearance of female protagonists in video games because they don't look like Jennifer Lopez and God forbid if they're queer or not white. Go touch grass. 🤦‍♀️

Our stuff isn't selling at all— we put it out two weeks ago and it's just not selling. Next year our store might not stock it at all.

I guess Christians are not interested in buying Easter stuff?

In a year that will be remembered for its relentless assault on intellectual freedom, 2023 saw an unprecedented wave of book bans sweeping across the United States.
The numbers are staggering and the targets are clear. In the first half of the 2022-23 school year alone, 30% of banned books focused on racial topics or featured characters of color, while over half of the bans in 2023 took aim at LGBTQ+ content. —via takeitback.org

Argentine Tango - a thread.

.. about the dance, the music, the culture around it, and a bit of history too.

(caveat - i'm no expert, just an enthusiast)

Let's start with a fun taster - a dance to one of the 3 main genres of music within tango culture - the milonga - we'll talk more about it later.

Enjoy it - but if you do want to watch more carefully, notice the most important element of tango - connection!

@rzeta0@mastodon.social avatar

let's address the question of

"(powerful) men lead,
(subservient) women follow"

yes - the origins of tango are in a cultural context of clear roles for men and women in a macho society

things change - and today, all around the world tango is danced in pairs of all sexes, genders and identities - and that's good

there is nothing about your identity that prevents you from being a good leader or follower
