SpaceX is killing astrophysics, the height of human intellect. Supporting SpaceX is supporting the end of our most important endeavor as a species.

What is Crocodoc? I googled it and a kid's tv show came up.

Re:Leaving LinkedIn: Choosing Engineering Excellence over Expediency

I clicked this bc I thought it was about users leaving Linkedin and was excited lol. But I listened and he pitched a 5 year plan solution to fix bad code??! Come on, this guy may never get hired again after that. Listening to this, I felt outrage at the concept of white men feeling like they can just quit when a company doesn't follow their slow engineering model. Huh?? I feel annoyed with stupid software and product decisions all the time and that's just how it is everywhere. All of capitalism and all of tech is do-it-as-fast-and-cheap-as-possible. Hello? Oh right, I looked at his Linkedin and he never had any formal training in software or engineering and has a MS in Divinty, so goodluck bruh, back to the bible for you.

It sounds to me like you are admitting that women often provide the crucial ideas and then are dis-credited. What direction would any work take without the initial idea? Lol. Even when a female has the idea and does all the work (ah-hem), a man will come along, steal the idea, claim it as his own, and suddenly be the one with a multi-million dollar seed deal or Nobel Prize or whatever. That is the reality that I have seen over and over.

This is honestly infuriating. Why wouldn't you realize that all of the characteristics of Jessica are why women are pushed out of the start-up world from the very first day they start? Why wouldn't you realize from this experience that women are the ones providing all the reasons and ideas for why a startup might be successful, but then are swept under the rug as a wife/family member/outside consultant/etc?

Sexist AF. Just wait until the day we reduce men to an IVF sperm bank. All global problems solved.
