@LeaKissner @Twitter I point lots of folks to your thread on the different roles that fall under Privacy Engineering, love to see this expanded: how to hire and train for the different kinds of privacy engineering tasks, how to balance and prioritize your teams. How much can be borrowed from infosec?

Couldn't make it to RWC this year -- serious FOMO of the convos I'm missing -- but next year is more plausible with childcare!♥️

[Deirdre Connolly¹ @durumcrustulum]

Props to RWC for providing childcare, allows people to attend who otherwise couldn't!

And now the password stuffing attacks start.

I wonder how many services got breached thanks to log4shell? The retrospective on this one is going to be epic.

No, you can't go out!
It's cold, there are coyotes...

This is beautiful: “We’re going to raise Lily to be an independent person of love, kindness and wisdom.”

We need more like you, Lily.

This article makes it sound like there were no women in Amazon InfoSec when this stuff went down: https://t.co/qlmbpHY1ig

Narrator: Almost all of them left. But that's not a story a tech rag would tell.

I tried reading REAMDE but... it's like that creepy uncle who's weird to your sisters.

The me of twenty years ago would have been SO into this.

@colmmacc I missed it (life is too busy for twitter most days) but whatever it was, I'm pretty sure it'll be OK if you do it again. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Amanda Gray @thalassa_gray]

Never change, Colm!

When I was little, did I want to grow up to be a serious person who looks at screens all day long?

I suppose, as a star trek fan, I did.

More and more folks want to hire privacy engineers. This is great! You almost certainly need them! But, just like security, privacy engineering is a whole field.

So for the folks who want to hire or become a privacy engineer, a rundown of the current rough types I see. (Big🧵)

Filling a gap in American healthcare, but it begs the question... does my baby need her own smartphone now?

Nice writeup and good reminder not to make assumptions about what's in a blob. https://t.co/XSyzy7zLie

Why dream up such a bleak future?

[Amanda Gray @thalassa_gray]

Reading "future uber drivers and freelance content makers" in https://t.co/M9GXk649Pl gives me pause: doesn't uber want to replace drivers with AI-powered cars? Has artistic expression been reduced to interchangeable "content" that is just made with no hint of creative process?
