That's a very long game in IP range speculation.

@nprofile1q...

Understandably, yes.

I've a couple of decades of migraine logs (yay tagging posts on Social Media) and dug through that to generate a graph. There _appears_ to be a seven year cycle... But also the peaks are when I needed to change my glasses..

@nprofile1q...

That's legit fascinating.

The coda to this is that I lasted another seven years in the spod trades after I came out.

My immediate colleagues were sound people, including offering to set about anyone who gave me a hard time.

However the wider orgs? Grim.

It's actually pretty easy. Assuming you even see applications from women, the chances are they'll be better than dudes.

If some oik is being a sexist twat, call them on it. Standing there and going 'Mate. Really? Is it 1975 or what?' is good actually.

Someone gets talked over in a meeting?
'Mate, I don't think (blah) had finished?'

Keep doing that. Keep doing the work. Do not expect cookies.

Do expect a significantly more pleasant workplace.
