@gilmae Just normal glasses. I got the distinct impression he’s not super pro-Google right now.

When you become aware of stereotype threat, it can actually affect your performance. Iâm reminded of https://t.co/7sQw58ImYo. #ggdsyd
Note to self: remind interviewers at work to never comment on rarity of female engineers. #stereotypethreat #ggdsyd
Okay, let the record show I tweeted the xkcd reference before it appeared in the slides! #ggdsyd https://t.co/LGzeUX89yt
Bookmarking for the next time someone asks me why there arenât more women in tech. #stereotypethreat #ggdsyd https://t.co/YJ4xifSCYi
If youâre the only woman in the room taking a maths test, you donât have to be reminded of the stereotype. #ggdsyd
How to welcome candidates from minority groups: less Star Trek, more plants. https://t.co/QhOCXYIMdJ #ggdsyd #WomeninTech
How to counter #stereotypethreat. Will be discussing with our People Lead tomorrow. #ggdsyd https://t.co/JlFiOJaweZ
@emmasee100 Because it reinforces the stereotype & can lead to worse performance. Even if they donât believe the stereotype.
More ways to counter #stereotypethreat. #ggdsyd https://t.co/y9WIGtuNy0
Last tip for countering #stereotypethreat: normalise the appearance of struggle. Everybody struggles. #ggdsyd https://t.co/SRexKfFgPE
Benevolent sexism is annoying, but it shouldnât actually affect your performance. Small silver lining, I guess. #ggdsyd
Good grief, Google. You have set an extremely high bar for every #ggdsyd sponsor for the next year. https://t.co/kMv9du42F9
Bloody hell, Google. Eating a wedge of Brie the size of my head. Who needs crackers? #GGDS⌠https://t.co/9IGzEVS7uL https://t.co/PEEdvpxZVg
