6 months ago, I and dozens of others had our names published on a list of people who should be attacked or targeted for supporting diversity

At the time, I was leaving my prior job. The site suggested that people on the list be blacklisted from employment.

I didn't back down, because I want to believe I live in a world where supporting diversity can be rewarded. This was "strong."

That is bullshit. That shouldn't be considered strong. That should be normal.

As a result of this, I don't list my employer or title here. Is that fear? Is that weak? Prudent?

I kinda find it weird techies list their employers on personal twitter. My employer is not a strong part of my identity.

Yeah. At the same time, Twitter networking has been exceptionally strong, and I feel like it's a loss.

Yeah, there’s definitely this weird cross-over of personal/professional with twitter that makes this all so complex.

It was *really weird* seeing all the twitter folks at my office for Alterconf.
