Was watching a YouTube discussion about power dynamics in our community. A woman who is a fierce debater, told a brother 40k a year ain’t no money. The brother in turn accused her of being cruel, and lack compassion for the men who earn such and work hard. Let’s be clear, HE FUCKED UP! In regards to power/resources never plead with a woman for sympathy. It’s a fool’s errand and only speaks to your lack of competence. If you wish for those around you to treat you respect, demand excellence of yourself.

Currently there’s a Twitter tech space filled with black tech professionals telling stories of racism etc. Some of them started crying. I got the fuck up outta there before it became even more embarrassing. It bothers me that my race has become synonymous with thin skin behavior in the professional world. Look, tech is a fuckin jungle. These “90 days to front end dev salary” charlatans won’t give you the real.
