I have been contacted by at least a dozen conference and meetup organisers over the years who seem to think that I do, in fact, have a binder full of women technical speakers. (Same goes for recruiters.) It’s annoying af. https://t.co/FK5pYFGAs2


@candeira I appreciate that folks are trying. It’s just that the binders don’t exist, and it’s not my job.


@Mandy_Kerr I am standing by rego desk!! Where are you??
