Companies optimize for people who can pass the coding interview instead of optimizing for people who can do the job.

Can we start normalize engineers having emotions? Sometimes I cry. That in no way means I can't do my job. Having emotions and being capable are NOT mutually exclusive.

I was recently reminded of that Mr. Rogers quote "Find the helpers", and realized it's not just applicable to little kids. In my job in tech, there are helpers. When people push you down, they are there. Find them. Cherish them. Be them for others.

Women don't need more imposter syndrome workshops. We need better managers.

One thing I've learned in my career is that saying "I'll never do x" is a pretty solid way to guarantee that I'll do x at some point.
