Feels like an appropriate bittersweet ending when I leave my laptop at Stripe for the last time and it immediately starts raining. Looking forward to what’s next but also feeling all the feelings today

- Replying to @ArmandDomaHonestly I think politics is not the problem here. It’s the inability to research and verify facts. There are so many just wrong things in that piece. I don’t know what he teaches but I’d be very worried about the lack of critical thinking and reasoning being shown
- Just a cover letter. Based on advice we held an open house with treats and drinks explaining why what we were doing was very reasonable and sent letters before as well. I was 6 months pregnant. And still got DR’ed. This city 🙄
- Gave my first ever large conference talk today at #velocityconf today. Thank you to everyone that came! Here is a link to the deck
- I've always found small learning groups incredibly rewarding and would like to help create a few more based on what I've learned. If you would like to be matched into a group of senior technology leaders that will meet twice a month please fill this link
- Replying to @DeanPrestonThe district lost money - from the state by being the only one in the bay area to not reopen fully, fewer enrollments, fighting a frivolous lawsuit. It truly baffling to see progressives back such an incompetent board that did real harm.
- Finally publishing something I've been mulling over for a while
- This was such a great podcast to be on!Stripe Infrastructure Management with Uma Chingunde @umanagineer @stripe softwareengineeringdaily.com/2019/09/27/str…
- Replying to @_shortcourtney_That’s like Barbara in Abbott Elementary 😂
- Replying to @cultofJT and @SFParentsIt is actually possible to both like your school and teachers and also want the BOE recalled
- Replying to @patio11😂 ok fine! Just for you we’ll ‘charge more’
- Replying to @sfguardians and @recallsfboeDidn’t the district lose far more money from the state because they failed to reopen middle and high school in spring?
- Replying to @isaacinthesky and @patio11Particularly true for those who might have visas tied to the place of work. I shudder to think of anyone that might have gone through a visa transfer to have an offer rescinded but it probably happens.
