Every once in a while I think about the time I was trying to tell three male coworkers about a study that had shown that men think their female coworkers talk more & interrupt more, even though, in fact, men talk & interrupt more, but I could never finish telling them, b/c they kept interrupting me.

I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset.
In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia.
In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

Substack proudly funds the nazi voices on their platform. Please stop publishing on substack if you have any modicum of concern about the information ecosystem and the economics of hate. I know many people who absolutely do know better who continue to publish there and it is second-hand embarrassing

The Dickin Medal is the highest award that can be issued to animals in British military service. Bearing the words "We Also Serve" it has been awarded 75 times since its creation in 1943.
Only one cat has ever received the award.
This is the story of Able Seacat Simon, of HMS Amethyst. 🧵 1/25

I am writing a book titled "A Pragmatic Journey into C++ Modules." It is a work in progress, but since I'm publishing on LeanPub, I can release an early version and update it periodically. Early readers can also obtain it at a discount, and proofread it for me.

Since apparently being a nice person is illegal in the US now, it’s time to pull out my most popular blog post ever.
It’s called “survival tips for women in tech”, but I’m told it works for all genders and in countless industries.

Hi new followers! I'm a C++ programmer from London, UK. In my spare time I run C++ Club UK at cppclub.uk. In my previous life back in Lithuania I used to be a surgeon. I served a year in the Soviet Army back when USSR was a thing, and then lived through its collapse.
C++ Club
C++ Club is a semi-regular online meeting of C++ enthusiasts to discuss the latest news, events and anything else related to the C++ programming language. This is where I post meeting notes. For video...
