TurboVax is back online. Thanks for the support, I hope you'll follow your messages with real action I'd esp like to appreciate our BIPOC neighbors who stand with us. Our communities face different forms of racial discrimination but the fight for equity is shared amongst us all

I can finally share what I've been up to: GitHub Sponsors! 💖 It's a new way to fund and empower developers, maintainers, mentors, organizers, etc in your communities—not just for their current work, but their future work, too 🚀 #GitHubSatellite github.com/sponsors

I have had several people who I respect immensely ask me for advice on how they can be helpful. I want to say this to everyone that may be listening…

For any Black folks who want to break into product design — I don't have much to offer, but I do teach! I'm happy to teach you what I normally do over the course of 10 weeks with a different institution, free of charge, me and you. Let's do this 👇 forms.gle/SSPzUWukEHxUFMjYA

As an organization, we exist to combat systemic oppression. This week and always we stand with protestors as they demand justice and action for Black lives in the United States. #BlackLivesMatter #BlackTransLivesMatter #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

a reminder that as a tech worker, there are probably some valid ways you can "use your skills" to aid people in this crisis but many times what you need to do is just open up your wallet and distribute $$$

Digital Tech holds monthly meetings to help us build and maintain a healthy and inclusive enviornment. Last week we read medium.com/compassionate-cod… & talked about ensuring inclusion. From our convo I find this thread about using inclusive language helpful: teapawt.net/FlawlessHack/status/98…

Ever since I met @whereistanya at @FlawlessHack earlier this year, I've been thinking about my life in terms of reliability. Is that 9 5s or 5 9s? Well, yesterday it occurred to me that DNA polymerase can have as low as 2 9s or 9 9s reliability, depending on your local version
