@sarajw @ada There's a climate strike taking place today, but I am going to another day.

Heard so much good things from her (as in: text).

I'm wondering now: if 2D flow charts won't cut it (and we cannot all get chemistry sets), would one in A-Frame, i.e. VR, do it?

@andre @sarajw
I get the idea, but this clashes with our efforts to hammer down "consent" in young (and not so young) males thick skull.

@axnxcamr @andre well, this is true. I mean there are obviously levels of "getting stuff done" - you can't just apologise for other kinds of violence either..

@axnxcamr @andre @sarajw
"Never say no" can also turn into toxic positivity. I've had too many times with non-technical managers who use "never say no" to avoid necessary conversations about refining grossly unrealistic proposals

@StormyDragon
"Never say no" is usually promoted from the top down, as management believes requests should be accepted by default in that direction but not necessarily the other way around.
Not what I had in mind, but a very good example of a "rule" that could be misunderstood and misused.

@andre @sarajw Looks like US Navy Reserve Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, an icon in the computer science world.

@SignorMacchina @sarajw I know!

But I wasn't able to tell from images I've seen of her.
