@nicoritschel @nicoritschel we just opened up our waitlist, sign-up here and we can flag you in :) https://t.co/xE198KYEom

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

@sqs @mariorod1 the waitlist to join Copilot Partners is here: https://t.co/8Zq4kSRlBq

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

@sqs @mariorod1 The API to support the "build one, build for all" scenario (where your extension works on all editors: VSCode, VS, JetBrains, https://t.co/YeetmOiSIs) is currently limited to Copilot Partners. But definitely heard the feedback if we can open up those docs sooner!

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

@sqs @mariorod1 Hi Quinn, the VSCode extension APIs you linked will only work for extensions in VSCode, and cannot be shared among editors.

@mlittmancs @BrownHCRI aw, just seeing this -- all my experiences at Brown is a *huge* part of how I got here. Miss the Brown CS fam and our CS8 crew!

@wesgalliher @jackiebo @ProdPad @jackiebo would love to chat! I’m on the Ethics & Society team at Microsoft, working with product teams to think through and prioritize these issues :)

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

@ilja_vi long journey ahead, indeed -- hopefully we're all determined to pave and trek this path though :)

[Ilja Vishnevski @ilja_vi]

@_sharonlo @lizzielove @dreasaez Thank you for that, Sharon, and also Liz and Andrea, that was a great webinar!! There is so much to be learned and such a long journey ahead of us to make ethics an essential part of decision making when building product...

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

@jenniferlucymcd glad you found it helpful!

[Jen McD | Jensui @jenlucymcd]

@dreasaez @_sharonlo Really enjoyed it! I've taken copious amounts of notes that I can't read. The Q&A at the end was so thought provoking too. Particularly tech being probabilistic as opposed to deterministic.

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

Thanks @_EmmaBruun for tuning in!

[Emma Bruun @_EmmaBruun]

Really enjoyed your webinar today @_sharonlo - thanks!

[Sharon Lo @_sharonlo]

Super excited to be part of this — thanks @lizzielove and @dreasaez for the opportunity!

Technology has become so pervasive that we have to build with intent and be aware of how our products are impacting us, our experiences, and societies.

Join us and guest @_sharonlo as we discuss product ethics and the future of product.

@Bosefina I'm part of a 40 person team at Microsoft called Ethics & Society -- we're a group of designers, researchers, PM's, engineers, and ethicists supporting all of our Cloud + AI products thinking about ethical product development. Would love to chat!

“One way I think about some of the decisions is putting myself in the future and thinking...what will they say?” Ms. Wojcicki said. “If someone were to look back on the decisions that we’re making, would they feel we were on the right side of history?” https://t.co/spPmJY9b4A

Thanks @ckindel for coming!

[Tig @tigkindel]

Inspirational talk by @_sharonlo at @GIX_edu Women in Tech conf on career trajectory. Neat new Steve Ballmer building in Bellevue too. Thanks to @Christiney_Bean for dragging me along.

Some people feel it’s their duty to save the world.

Others feel called to remind people of all the beauty that’s worth saving.

I can’t tell you how often I think about Jay Z saying no to the super bowl. “You need me; I don’t need you.” What a powerful thing to understand about yourself. And RiRi BEEN knowing.

fallopian fortutude, that phrase, this thread, I'm ded

[míš @bvdhai]

At that point I am genuinely amazed at the fallopian fortitude this girl possesses. This is top 10 greatest finesse of all time. Dudes actually stayed and played.

[D’Arcy Coolican @DCoolican]

Under appreciated skill: ability to think probabilistically, but execute with 100% commitment to the decision.

Always impressed with people who can seamlessly shift between those two gears.
