@avantgame and for other tech talks, is the ratio better? No excuse, just curious how endemic it is.

@nfalstein when I am invited in a timely fashion there are usually more women on agenda, it doesn't feel like a last-ditch effort -
@avantgame@nfalstein On the bright side, at least someone is noting that 0 women speaking is a problem. Would be nice if Sony caught on. -
@oltyan@avantgame another interpretation: conferences w/women speakers are better organized!

@avantgame yep. I’m surprised how many invites also openly say they reached out to me because I’m a woman. As if that makes me feel good!? - 1 more reply
