My Twitter gender breakdown – 57% men, 42% women, 1% nonbinary. Could be better, but not bad considering I mainly follow folks in the tech industry. https://t.co/0bU8zalC4Y https://t.co/zzE4Jyedei


@trannosaurusma Oh interesting! Twitter says 53/47…


@minxdragon 😂It took a random sample, so it might not have been you. But you are always special to me!


@itgrrl @youngnick I don’t think either of us built it? I certainly didn’t. I read Nick’s comment as saying he needs to follow more non-men. 🙂


Enjoying my front row seat for @zhamakd’s #yownight talk about service meshes! Thanks for hosting this massive crowd, @SafetyCultureHQ! https://t.co/2QwukHl1X3


“So what’s the solution to this? MAGIC!” 😂 @zhamakd walking though example involving implementing observing telemetry over your Microservice architecture. #yownight https://t.co/zZ4TsdCQkg


Now @zhamakd is talking about API Management systems. It’s a $600M industry, and it will grown even bigger in the future. What should you get that plays nicely with service mesh? “It depends.” #yownight https://t.co/52xEYJfizw


Moving from monolith to microservices should involve an important switch to treating internal and external API users the same. No more poorly documented internal-only services! #yownight @zhamakd https://t.co/3iuuZsIu33

@unixbigot We need to print up, like, red cards that we can hand out to people at meetups.


@aimee_maree @unixbigot You’re defending people during Q&A sessions who don’t have questions?! No. You cannot.


I did this in Sydney in January. Most challenging – but rewarding – thing I’ve done thus far this year. Highly recommended! https://t.co/pnvO9aJmhw


@dibblego @FakeSamRitchie You just have to click on it, and there’s a spam checker. Once it knows you’re not a robot, it shows the email. 🙂


RT @itgrrl: So if you want an #infosec feed that has lots of awesome women in it, feel free to follow my ‘infosec’ list https://t.co/zJSR7S…


@randomknits YAYYYYYYY I’m glad you like it! As soon as I saw it, I was like, “that’s for Donna.”


@dibblego @FakeSamRitchie Have sent to YOW’s newest evangelist @Amys_Kapers, who will be sharing with all the folks she knows over there. 🙂


Melbourne – there’s another fantastic Software Art Thou talk happening on April 12th at @Zendesk. (Well done as always, @JeffreyTheobald!) James Ross from @envato will be talking about concept mapping – which sounds very cool… https://t.co/IiwRMAx3ZD


RT @brad_frost: Software projects, please stop with language like “just run `npm install …”

@KenScambler ☹️


@zoeydoesnttweet Haha, you’re getting lots of twitter replies from that damn tweet. Sorry about that! Your 15 minutes of YOW fame. 😛


@jesslynnrose I quit and ran a knitting shop for 3 years. Only went back because we got a mortgage and tech paid a lot better. 🙁


@ElaineStead That’s wonderful! ❤️
