You're so severely underpaid that it's genuinely concerning. Who do you work for?

I know what you're talking about but I don't think that's the same photo series. Now it's driving me crazy and I need to find it.

Unicorn.... Nah, I'm kidding fortunately for women there's no strong stereotypes. There were enough women in my gigs that the individuality was easily apparent.

Since that's isn't really fun I'll pull some very broad strokes descriptions out my rear end and see which one resonates with you.

The Professional Mom: 8-4:30 on the dot but maximum effort during working hours and never ever seen goofing off or chit chatting (lunch included). Pretty chill though and smart as hell.

The boardgame/crossword girl: most likely to be gender fluid. Don't ever mistake her for "gamer girl". Will happily shoot the shit with you and goof off if you treat her like human being. Will probably have real experiences of getting work/credit stolen by tech bros.

The optimistic young coder: super jazzed about being the in the field and learning everything about anything. A people pleaser to a fault. Give it two to three years before she's completely jaded. Until then, an absolute sponge of knowledge.

The cut throat career track woman: absolutely obsessed with advancing her status. Tech bros learn brutality from these ladies. Usually transition to pure management or product divisions pretty early. Also most likely to organize the "women in tech" meetings for clout in the current company. Stay on their good side for your sake.

Major cities have LED street lamps that are old enough that they're failing with a deep blue/purple color. Those sections of streets are pretty cyberpunk.

Jesus fucking Christ. There are some real monsters practicing medicine.

Google did a rollback of anti-SEO indexing features because the intention is that users issue more searches. Ever since the ads side of the business won the war for the soul of Google the experience has gotten worse on purpose.

This is a longer watch but worth it. Just be prepared for it to get real heavy halfway through.

 
 
 
 
 

I'm getting a lot of comments from friends that they can't make an account. I went to make test accounts on both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world and both are throbbing indefinitely (didn't see any network traffic either).
