#diversity

There is no change without pissing some people off. But is it worth keeping the
status quo, for a few calcified die-hards who benefit most from no change at
all? #diversity

When I say "We need more diversity in tech." it doesn't mean that I want less
men in tech, but that we need more opportunities that don't give them unfair
advantages.

#Diversity is not a zero sum game.

When looking at #diversity quotas, they are needed, but formulate them openly:
30% white men for example is a good quota for a white male dominated field. It
doesn't put the pressure to fit underrepresented people into a box.

#diversity won't happen on old habits.

Going to tech meetups in Trondheim is depressing. 40 attendees, all white men.
