Thanks @SydTechLeaders for the opportunity to present. It was a great privilege sharing the mic with @sugendran and Liza Z. Until the next one 👋

Humility isn't a sign of low self-esteem. It's a mark of high self-awareness.

The goal isn't to deny your strengths. It's to see your strengths & shortcomings accurately. The first rule of improvement: recognize room for improvement.

Narcissism feeds ego. Humility fuels growth.

Horrific crimes against civilians are not redeemed by horrific crimes against civilians.

Since 2.6 million followers isn't nothing, a quick note on the sheer dishonesty at work here:

1. Since v. early days, we were warned that one of the possible short term side-effects of the Covid vaccines (along with soreness, fatigue and flu-like symptoms) could be irregular menstrual bleeding. Many papers have been published on this. Never denied, never hidden.

2. That is NOT the claim that for which Wolf needs vindication. She repeatedly amplified claims that simply being *near* vaccinated ppl (or being in rooms where they had been) caused bleeding and cramping. Lots of people believed her. It's still wrong.

@developerjack @JamesTechRec Attrition challenges might add up to the recruitment challenges 😂

@developerjack @JamesTechRec There was a follow up article that an executive in this dude’s company sent to his employees saying something like “when Tim referred to workers as lazy and entitled, he didn’t mean you”.

Why do we need a Voice? Still struggling to understand? Maybe this will help. Let’s do a hypothetical:

The woke mind virus is making me get the new Covid vaccine which ramps up my woke mind virus. It’s a vicious circle.

[Sally Rugg @sallyrugg]

Deliberately inflammatory & incredibly irresponsible for 7 to spread complete falsehood that “thousands of kids” transition and regret it. An utter lie.

Plus, I know one of the people in the trailer. She was a 25yo adult when she chose to transition.

No journalistic integrity.

This next session of Men Championing Change Australia is a promising one! We hope to see you there this 20th June!

[Men Championing Change Australia @MCCAustralia]

Hey, folks 👋, we'll have a great event this Tue, June 20th. We'll discuss better ways of doing tech tests when hiring engineers.
Is there a way to assess candidates more inclusively without sacrificing quality? 🤔
Join us and find out! https://t.co/9Dt9HEigdD #techrecruitment

@developerjack I listened to this podcast episode last night and the guest assumes that the slump is more due to the high attrition that shitty jobs cause.
