Something I want to challenge in management is the idea that someone must take on extra responsibilities for 3-6 months before they are promoted.

As a tech lead (w/ reports) before the pandemic I thought, ya ok this is doable. But jumping into Eng manager during, I no longer hold this view.

Scrolling the skyline, it’s obvious that Black people and LGBTQIA+ people are the backbone of the content creation here. It’s not surprising, given the level of vitriol on twitter, that those are the communities searching for a better platform.

I just want to let the record reflect that @aliafonzy.bsky.social got me and a host of other big platforms on this app and she (as well as Black twitter) need to be apart of the conversation on making this app pop

Intro post πŸ‘‹

I work at a tech nonprofit you probably like, but rarely post about tech/work. Instead enjoy:

Ugly cats 🐱
Hiking πŸ•οΈ
Human languages πŸ”°
Brum being great 😌
Tech edu programs πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»
Me posting literally every single stray thought about whatever my absurdist new hyperfocus is🫠

Waking up to BlueSky is such a calming experience. It’s a vibe that can’t be replicated on the other app.

I feel like I’m in the trenches with these devs reporting bugs to improve the experience for us all.

Vs on the other app, I was just sad for those devs and hoped they could get out ASAP.

Mami, I just saw this, and wanted to send you and papa so much love and support. We are thinking about him everyday and the whole family. Loving y’all so much and keeping y’all close!

Is the ALT text bugging out for anyone else on this app? Every time I try to write ALT text, my keyboard covers the β€œsave” button and the text input box and doesn’t allow the text to be saved to the image.

This is a beautiful full circle moment. This year I am proud to officially announce I am a #RenderATLAmbassador! In 2021 my experience @RenderATL was my FIRST time feeling truly *at home* at a tech conference. It's a dream to represent and show up for this org. Tickets at renderatl.com
