Really excited for this talk by Morgan Weever - Inclusivity Power-Up: Lessons Learned Mentoring Formerly Incarcerated Software Engineers.

It's a group you don't hear about much in DEI.

#vGHC20
For this community mentorship isn't just about the technical knowledge (which is important) but there are some specialized needs for career growth. Additionally, imposter syndrome (a big issue in tech) can weigh heavy for formerly incarcerated individuals.

#vGHC20
Some useful tips for Technical Education regardless of a mentee's background.

"Don't disparage the mentee's educational path" is a big one IMO - more and more folks are entering tech from non-traditional backgrounds which is *awesome*

Next on the schedule today is a workshop: Breathing Life into ERGs: the Impact of a Pandemic and a Racial Justice Movement.

Hoping I can stay concentrated on this session - I've been losing the WFH distraction battle today.

#vGHC #GHC20
Had issues joining via web so I'm going mobile. In to the panel just in time for intros whew! Moira Bohannon, Mercedes Hall and Patreece Spence are all speakers with Beth Dickerson hosting. All from Elsevier.

Definitely appreciate the intros including pronouns
#vGHC #GHC20
Workshops at #vGHC #GHC20 are the more 'interactive' version of virtual events this year. We're getting started with some audience polls to better understand demographics.

Lots of folks coming from SWE and a broad distro of folks across their career stage.

Next session at #vGHC20 for me is pretty pertinent: Male Allies: The One "DEI" Thing a Male Ally Can Do Today - a panel including Glenn Block, David Graham, Jason Thompson, and Jeremiah Chan.

Note: DEI == Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

#vGHC20 #ghc2020
Sobering stat: study by the patent office 12.8% of patent inventors are women. The percentage growth in this area is actually slowing down.. only 2% growth in 15+ years.

This isn't just about recognition for patent creation there's a financial impact as well.

#vGHC20 #ghc2020
Another stat: 9 of 10 venture capital dollars goes to while males according to our moderator Ha Nguyen. Through Spero Ventures she's working to help make those numbers more diverse.

I'm *really* excited about the next session on my list: Applying Accessibility and Gender Sensitive Design Strategy to API Design with Anwesha Bhattacharjee.

I tend to think of Accessibility == UX so it will be great to see a take on service build out.

#GHC20 #vGHC2020
Dr. Anwesha reiterates my original take: this isn't just about UX. She's a Product Manager at Hopper and formerly a data scientist.

#GHC20 #vGHC2020
This session is geared towards folks in B2B, a product manager/designer role familiar with Design Thinking or are building out a public facing API catalog.

My take: probably pretty important for internal API creation too!

Ethics in software development can be tricky - data may be used in unintended ways. As software devs it’s not always easy to think of these possibilities when we are so focused on delivering “the service.” #devopsdaysphilly
There’s a double edged sword at play - we may not know the usefulness of data points until we have them. But from a privacy perspective we should only be grabbing data that’s relevant to providing the service #devopsdaysphilly
