Today my Tuesday morning walking group discussed whether if king Charles ordered a coffee in their imaginary cafe, would they expect him to pay for his coffee? Four said no and only one said yes (me).
One person then relayed a story that on a recent trip to Melbourne, she stopped at Brunetti in Carlton for coffee and was asked by a homeless woman if she would buy her a coffee, which the homeless person then upsized to a double shot mochaccino with a dollop of cream. She said she felt duped and most of our group agreed until I pointed out that four out of five of us would rather give free coffee to a billionaire instead of a homeless person.

Her Maths Story

“My PhD was all about understanding what happens to blood flow in collapsible blood vessels like the giraffe jugular vein. In my postdoc I was investigating how to optimise ventilator settings for patients in ICU and then how to deliver inhaled therapies into the lungs. Since then, my focus has been in trying to understand how diseases like Asthma and other respiratory diseases originate and then progress. This involves incorporating biology and physics into mathematical and computational models, using approaches from different areas of applied maths. More recently I have started to look into the mechanisms that could lead to a rare lung disease called lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and Long Covid.” - Bindi Brook

There is a gnat-hair difference between so-called-white-people’s #racism and their #unconsciousbias

But it’s there, and that’s the leverage point, or attack surface, to focus #antiracist energy. That’s our work that we have to do.

The strategy of #colonialism has always been divide and conquer.That is essential for #minorityrule. That is the heart of #corporate #fascism

In battle 4 hearts and minds we must appeal to #humanity, because that’s what’s under direct assault. Teach your friends

@jeffowski I can't believe most of the comments, saying 'it wasn't intentional'. Sofware names are very carefully chosen. Product managers haven't intentionally used a female name in a derogatory way, they (and we know for a fact THEY were men) had the #unconsciousbias that an assistant should be a woman, and that bias is born from, hum... what is that called again in the #Barbie movie.... ah yeah, #patriarchy. If you don't believe our current society is patriarchal, go back to Barbie.

About a year ago I printed out a copy of this paper👇by @Aaberhe et al.
It’s figure 1 says it all.
So I put it on the table in the institute’s kitchen. The paper circulated around the offices and landed back in the kitchen with visible signs of being read. Printing out the next reading tip ...

Replacing the leaky pipeline metaphor with that of a hostile obstacle course demands that those with power take the lead.
