@pyko @WWCSyd Just saw laser cut code event! What level of programming exp is required/assumed?
@WWCSyd SWEET! I’m there. 🙂
RT @kidnoble: Unbelievably accurate. https://t.co/Y4wch1DRhS
@drkknits I get your point, but to this day, I think of myself as a girl. So I rarely take offense at such things.
@Gidgetknits @drkknits Possibly an American thing, but I’d go with “guys” as counterpart.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter We’ve had some debate at @GGDSydney over whether “Girl” in name puts some people off. (While others hate “Geek.”)
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter And oddly, I get very sensitive over need to be Ms. rather than Miss or Missus. Maybe I’m just weird.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter I agree with you in university context. I would find that patronising. No arguments there.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter “Women” just seems terribly grown up and sophisticated to me in a way I don’t identify with.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter Incidentally, was reading article this morning on death of “adult/grown up” in culture.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter Ah, but problem there isn’t the word Girls. “Women do science SQUEEE!” is just as gross and barfy.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter Ha! Well, if talking about brassieres and other mature things, women def seems warranted.
@drkknits @drwitty_knitter Boys + anything vaguely sex-related would have been more problematic I guess.
@KylieSaunder Excellent! That’s two of us spearheading the movement. 🙂
Finally caught my first Opal-enabled bus to work! (Most of the Broadway buses still don’t have it.) @TheOpalUser
One problem: without a stamped ticket, I can’t check what bus I’m on! Sometimes I forget, and some stop different places. @TheOpalUser
