In 1986, the largest group of workers was in occupations classified as skill lvl 4 (roughly equivalent to a certificate II or III). Nowadays, the largest group of workers is in the highest (skill level 1) category - occupations requiring a bachelor degree/higher qualification.
Despite all the hype about #STEM skills, occupations requiring communication skills are actually growing fastest.
#STEM skills needed in a wide range of contexts + roles are those that involve working with (rather than programming) technology - skills such as the ability to think critically, analyse systems + interact with computers.

We all want to know this right - does my #cat really love me? And if not, WHY?
#Thread

Cats can’t tell us how they’re feeling, but if we watch their behaviour closely we can work out a lot.
The things you see your cat doing are probably what it enjoys. If it gets the chance to do these things then your #cat is probably happy.

2nd #Thread of responses from women in aerodynamics to the question, 'what do you currently see as being the major obstacle to women entering your field?'

Responses incl gender career stereotypes from an early age, lack of self-esteem and lack of female role models #WomeninSTEM
1. "I think that there is not enough awareness of female role-models in my field. There need to be more initiatives that allow young women to connect with female role-models so that they can be inspired and motivated to follow in their footsteps."
2. "Discouragement from teachers in high school to pursue a STEM career and an unwelcoming atmosphere in technical universities."

Today Pink Legacy diamond from platinum necklace donated by Maharaja of Mysore to Tirumala Tirupati Temples known as 'Leonardo da Vinci of Diamonds' was auctioned by Christie's at Geneva despite our letter to PMO & temple mahant's warnings. But how did it reach there?
In its 251 years in business, Christie's sold only 4 such diamonds weighing more than 10 carats, this #TTD diamond was almost 20 carats and sold for a record $70 million to Harry Winston. But no one has bothered to ask still how did this diamond get there? abc.net.au/news/2018-11-1…
According to British auction house Christie's this Tirumala Tirupati temples diamond once belonged to the Oppenheimer diamond family. But how did this diamond reach there from #TTD? And what is this Oppenheimer family? We warned about this in detail to our PMO early this year.

THREAD: A few times I've encountered people who are doubtful that simplified D&D isn't a positive learning experience for children under six. I'm here as an Early Childhood Educator to quickly explain why/how it is a positive one.
During this I will be touching on the five domains of childhood development (social, emotional, language, cognition, and physical).

1. Social: D&D is a social game. Children learn the basics of sustaining play, making friends, playing co-operatively, conflict resolution...
...problem solving skills, listening to their peers, and the empathy! It is so vital to learn in their early years as a child steps into a role in a TTRPG the amount of empathy they can learn from that and watching what others do with their characters is incredible.

Here are my favorite quotes from this amazing book. #THREAD
1. "Bitcoin can be best understood as distributed software that allows for transfer of value using a currency protected from unexpected inflation without relying on trusted third parties"
2. "While Bitcoin is a new invention of the digital age, the problems it purports to solve - namely, providing a form of money that is under the full command of its owner and likely to hold its value in the long run - are as old as human society itself"
