Worth reading the rumblings over at @ProgHist: is GitHub not an inclusive space? https://github.com/programminghistorian/jekyll/issues/152#issuecomment-155380321 …
@mhbeals @heatherfro @j_w_baker @ProgHist @Adam_Crymble yeah, me too. I guess it doesn't allow socialising that's not code-centric though.

@o_guest@heatherfro@j_w_baker@ProgHist@Adam_Crymble Yes. But TBH I appreciate the respite from cat pictures.. -
@o_guest@heatherfro@j_w_baker@ProgHist@Adam_Crymble I also don't want to reinforce the idea woman can't do Github cause its hard -
@mhbeals@heatherfro@j_w_baker@ProgHist@Adam_Crymble Brains can master English, ergo can learn git. It's not difficulty, but psychology. -
@o_guest@mhbeals@j_w_baker@ProgHist@Adam_Crymble and english is not an easy language! -
@heatherfro I personally find my other native language much much much harder (despite all schooling in it), but yes, English has weirdnesses -
@o_guest lots of them! I'm sympathetic to your point. If you can speak a human language you can speak a computer lang -
@heatherfro "Just don't expect to be Jane Austen" - that's from one of my programming slides to students
