I've worked in software development for over 20 years, and most of my career has been in management. I want to share something about the reality of working as a Black man fulfilling leadership roles in tech.

People complaining that removing statues such as that of Lord Baden Powell is a rewriting of history. But surely that fact that most of us were completely unaware of his ties to facism show that we've taught history incorrectly in the first place?

My brave, talented fiancée has written a moving piece on her experiences as a black woman. Please take the time to read and educate yourselves on the things that black people have to go through and what you can do. https://t.co/jtWoQs5HP5 #BlackLivesMatter @AsanteDanica

It's taken a few weeks to get the certificate, but it's pretty exciting to see that, even though I'm not actively in science anymore, the research that I've been lucky enough to be part of is making a real impact. https://t.co/crKkO5is8q

What's the longest amount of time you've spent for the smallest amount of code committed? I've just spent 3 hours to realise that my event handler was missing a single character 😫

LINQ provides a number of extension methods for manipulating enumerables (arrays, lists etc.). The Where method allows collections to be filtered.

#devtwitter I'm thinking about getting a mechanical keyboard but want to hear your opinion. How much difference does it really make? What form factor and switches would you recommend? I hear 60% with brown switches are popular. #developer #coding #programming #code #javascript

Did you know that #stackoverflow, #ups and #GoDaddy all use .NET in their technology stack?

Spent the past few hours failing to customise Bulma. Turns out it was all because I was defining the colour in my #sass as '#213458' instead of #213458. This is why I should stick to backend development. #notafrontenddeveloper @jgthms #javascript #html #coding #programming #css

[Dr. Sam Walpole 💻🌍 @walpolesj]

@CassandraPaigee I usually rely on UI frameworks to take the pain out of building the frontend. Then I can focus solely on functionality. Once I have a fully functioning project, then I worry about tweaking the design.

The difference between the ref and out keywords in C#. See my previous post on my profile for more details. #dotnet #csharp #programming #java #developer #programmer #javascript #html #python #coding #code #azure #microsoft #devops #bigdata #reactjs #dotnetdeveloper #php

@soldrsnptcoats @jody_lecompte @EriPDev I had literally never considered this as an option. Guess I've been using a keyboard wrong my whole life 😅

Studying Design Patterns. Starting off with a simple State Pattern implementation in C#. https://t.co/MLfQ0ddJj9 #dotnet #csharp #programming #java #developer #programmer #javascript #html #python #coding #code #azure #microsoft #devops #bigdata #reactjs #dotnetdeveloper #php

The out keyword allows multiple variables to be modified by a method. This is common in 'try' methods that return a success boolean and use out to return the value. #dotnet #csharp #programming #java #developer #programmer #javascript #html #python #coding #code #azure #microsoft

If only there was a name for a clinically administered weakened version of a virus... 😂 #VaccinesWork #antivax #coronavirus #COVIDー19

[Megan Amram @meganamram]

I'm an anti vaxxer which is why I think we should just all get herd immunity by exposing ourselves to the virus to get antibodies, ideally a weakened version of the virus, in some sort of doctor's office or pharmacy
