    It's a bad situation when the best advice on negotiating salaries is to lie. But here we are.

    The loose rules I've learned in many a backchannel about salary negotiations: 1. Don't give a number 2. If they corner you, add 20% to your current salary 3. If you're worried about them backing off due to a high number, assure them it's the work you're interested in

    Our response to incels should NOT be a thought experiment about sex robots + government sex redistribution programs. It should be a blistering disavowal of their violent, misogynist worldview, and a conversation about creating a healthier, more respectful sexual culture for all.

    Someone was recently telling me they were a "Code Ninja". I don't want to work with a Ninja, they leave a bloody mess. I want to work with a "Code Janitor". Comes in the middle of the night, cleans things up, you only know they were there because everything is organized and tidy.

    So now that diversity reports are becoming standard, it's time to report on inclusion as well.

    Questions for every “Hurrah X Is Great At Diversity” profile: - Who leaves? Who is asked to leave? - Who gets promoted into what roles? How long did it take? Who is still waiting? - How are the black women (if there are any) rated / described vs the rest?
