Sadly today was much much more painful than last treatment. Dislocated ribs, thumbs, pelvis, knees, ankles, 7 dislocated toes and both shoulders. Tendons and ligaments wrong all over. #EhlersDanlos#DeepTissueTreatment
And learned about two knew things I didn’t knew existed that were apparently causing me immense problems: tibialis posterior and flexor digitorum longus. Not sure if they caused my calf muscle to malfunction or vice versa 😰 #EhlersDanlos#DeepTissueTreatment

Latest in the “moving into tech leadership and/or management” subtheme here today at #LeadDevSanFrancisco is “Becoming a Manager Somewhere Else” from @mybluewristband
“Not all the advice provided in this talk will definitely work for you, as it’s my own story”
Jenn’s Career Trajectory:
- civil engineer
- mechanical engineer
- structural engineer
- customer support (to get foot in the door of tech)
- web developer (~5 years)
- software engineer (again. Another 3 yrs)
- moving towards management
“Three Things to Look for in the Person:
[0) Care about people (non-neg) ] 1) Doubts (filter out power hungry) 2) Growth mindset (highly competent at engineering —> highly incompetent at managing) 3) Courage to be disliked (recognition changes)
“Inclusion is a foundation for setting and creating a level playing field for people to be given opportunities to succeed. Inclusion has to presume competence.”
I love the @TheLeadDev crowd so much. They just gave @carlaprvieira applause and whooping for explaining it’s her first time in the US and her first international conference talk here at #LeadDevSanFrancisco 🥰🥰🥰💖💖💖
“Bias is like a virus that travels and is replicated by machine learning models.”
Potential Harms Caused by AI Systems: 1) Bias & discrimination 2) Denial of individual autonomic rights 3) Non-transparent, unexplainable or unjustifiable outcomes 4) Invasions of privacy 5) Unreliable, unsafe or poor quality outcomes
