People need to understand that:

• It's Okay to fail,
• It's Okay to make mistakes,
• It's Okay to admit that you are wrong.
• It's Okay to not have an opinion about something
• It's Okay to say "I don't know"

Investing in female-led companies is #smartinvesting, and is now more important than ever.

I share why #VentureCapital should commit to gender balance and how @UNICEFinnovate@twitter.com is doing this.

A thought I am taking from today's @UN_Women@twitter.com panel: we need safe spaces to learn, make mistakes, try out new things, and sometimes fail. It is OK to fail.

I am feeling more that inclusivity is a first step to innovation and community-building.

Well, there is a lot to unpack. So, let's do it!

Yesterday I got the idea to make a choose-your-own-adventure game about debugging a computer networking problem, so I spent all morning on it today.

Here's a very early draft: https://computer-mysteries.netlify.app/slow-website.html

I'd love to know what folks think of this approach to learning debugging!

If you are a journalist writing about RMS and FSF, *please* interview folks leading in inclusive design in open source (@osdiversity@twitter.com or @CHAOSSproj@twitter.com among many ). To learn about things like https://chaoss.community/metric-inclusive-leadership/ established research tells us, no FSF is not open/inclusive. https://twitter.com/fsf/status/1381640087314792453
