And now my livetweeting continues with Dr. Andre Martin of Google, here to tell #DOES19 about curating a culture of high performance.
Today he's Google's VP of People Development. Did he have to whiteboard algorithms to get the job? #DOES19
"Past experience is going to be the biggest inhibitor to future growth." It's like the Innovator's Dilemma, applied at the micro level. I think. It's been a long day. #DOES19
Now Andre Martin is having an audience member read this.

It's a Google treatise on concurrency not being super important. #DOES19
I'm sorry, I... I don't know what to snark about first on this slide. It's a cunning trap laid just for me that I have fallen into! #DOES19
"It's up to leaders to say 'fewer things, done right.'" --Dr. Andre Martin, VP of People Development at--Google?! #DOES19

Let's talk about mechanical keyboards. A thread.
Some people collect keyboards. As I do with oh-so-many things, I take a wonderful hobby and turn it into a problem.
For example, I've made 2.5 Ergodoxes so far.

And now, J. Paul Netflix takes the keynote stage at #LISA19. 12 weeks in to the new job, he's already adept at telling the rest of us we're doing it wrong; he's been doing it for years!
It's a fake-out! The original talk is no longer streaming on Netflix; it's now:
Here's who he is. #LISA19

I missed the speaker's Twitter handle, but next up: Qui Nyugen of Yelp talking about the future of configuration. at #LISA19
Separating out configuration from code is a good thing BUT I KNOW BETTER AND HARDCODE EVERYTHING. #LISA19
I'm struck by how ubiquitous Git has become. Nobody comments on it; it's accepted that everyone already understands it. Nobody really understands it, but it's nice to pretend. #LISA19

What if I told you that #BigTech and #SocialMedia platforms are manipulating you, steering you toward #Health information that they think is right, rather than letting you evaluate content for yourself?

Commentary by @MaryamHenein (Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/google-censors…
Accredited professionals, meanwhile, who stand for #Health freedom and who criticize Big Anything, are losing posting privileges, getting banned, being buried, finding themselves deranked, and getting digitally assassinated.
Content is literally disappearing from the Internet along with our #Health choices.

It sounds conspiratorial because it is. Independent #Journalists and health experts are blowing the whistle. But it’s become a silent one.

5am thoughts: One of the challenges for men in #leadership positions in #tech who want to increase #inclusion and #diversity in our orgs, is that first we need to first recognize our own #privilege before knowing what conscious actions to take in our orgs & company-wide... 1/14
First, credit to my colleague @bjohnso5y. Her post on how to be a better #ally for #womenintech emphasized the mechanism of #recognition (e.g. crediting women for their ideas in public spaces). The goal of better #allyship inspired this thread... 2/14

In the sphere of political debate, you’ll often hear white people (especially men) arguing they don’t have privilege and don’t get special treatment. "Everything’s a meritocracy!" "Nobody 'gave' me anything!" - Nothing to see here, move along… 3/14

"Emancipation Processes as Crimes Against Humanity" #NowHappening #LiveTweeting #CentreForReparationResearch #UWIMona #N5
Dr. Kris Manjapra is the researcher who found the explosive information that the British Government redeemed their bonds paid in 2015, 180 years after they were taken to pay white slave holders.
When the information came out, it attacked the myth of the British nation and the way they now see themselves as an anti-Slavery nation. #Reparation #slaveryarchive @CRR_UWI

This is exactly what happened to me at #Google. Before my 60 days was over in Thanks Giving week 2018, I spoke to a couple of high ranking people there, who claimed to care about diversity/inclusion. They didn’t do anything & watched me being disposed of. wired.com/story/microsof…
I wouldn’t be surprised if #Google would be pooh poohing #Microsoft today, instead of looking in the mirror. That’s what they did when @susanthesquark’s story about Uber was published. Pooh poohed Uber, as if they had never paid $135M to sexual harassers.
“More common complaints in the online discussion centered on feeling stymied in promotion, trying to balance assertiveness with pressure to appear nice, and the bias and disparate treatment that allegedly comes with being labeled a “diversity hire.”

“Today, we are considering a resolution relating to the #securityclearance process at the #White House—a process that is supposed to protect our nation’s most closely guarded secrets. “ – Chairman @RepCummings
“This resolution would authorize me to issue a subpoena for the testimony of Carl Kline, who served as the White House Personnel Security Director under the #TrumpAdministration.”
“Yesterday, I sent a memo to all Committee Members providing information from a detailed, on-the-record interview with a #whistleblower who currently works in the #WhiteHouse.“
