Enough already!
Coasting down the wave of good kudos from my post on IITP Techblog, where I was applauded for being positive about all this ‘gender stuff’, comes this gem via the Guardian. Go on, go check it out and come on back when you’re done.

Unconscious Bias
There are just so many articles written about women and tech. We admit that there is a gender gap in hiring, a gender gap in pay and a gender gap…

WARNING Trigger Warning for mention of child pornography
So this article appeared on the Herald today, with the unfortunately horrifically bad headline “Judges living on planet ‘dumb arse'”
(note, this is a bad headline because it makes fun of the should-be hallowed institution of our judiciary, and thus will turn off any serious readers instantly)
Fun things to do while watching Arrow
I haven’t blogged since last October, and initially I felt like perhaps my first one back from such a hiatus should be some kind of deep insightful commentary.

#IStandWithAhmed and *that* clock
Certain parts of the internet has been buzzing today because someone called ProudGamer8 tweeted at Richard Dawkins about Ahmed Mohamed and Dawkins is resolutely standing his ground.
In case you’ve missed it all, Ahmed is a 14 year old kid who was arrested for possessing what looked like dodgy electronics. He took it to school, and people over-reacted and he was arrested for bringing a ‘bomb’ to school.
[Update: the other argument is that he was arrested for deliberately ‘faking’ a hoax. I.e. waste of police time etc which is an interesting point too, youtube link here thanks @soleeternaltat for the heads up]
