A friendly reminder that tech gatherings exclusively for women and gender-diverse people ARE justified and important.
If you are a man and don't believe me, please seek to get invited to one and see what it feels like to be a sole representative of your gender in a room full of techies – even if they're friendly and welcoming (like women are, more so than men), you will feel a combination of inadequacy, discomfort and exclusion.
Necessary until we have a safe, inclusive and diverse community.

@nova oh please do finish it eventually, that was an awesome read :)
I hope you get better quick!
Ok to boost the top toot?

@tiubuk en fait on a des parcours parallèles très similaires :)
Faut qu’on discute plus. (Et ptet collabore ?)
Au fait, petite coquille : avant-dernière phrase, verbe conjugué au pluriel au lieu du singulier.
Merci pour l’article en tout cas - j’ai envie d’en écrire un similaire moi-même maintenant !

@freetux je me demandais justement si ça existait l’autre jour ! 😍

European Investment Bank to phase out fossil fuels financing - The Guardian

... we switched the 2nd scale so they matched, and the difference in the data is clear cut: after the switch, answers to the second question were ~95% positive. Makes you realise that survey respondents make a lot of assumptions and will most times only read a scale once, and assume everything that follows uses the exact same one. Imagine the potential for erroneous studies. Imagine the potential for manipulating #research results!
Survey design should always be shared as supplementary data. 2/2

It might be obvious to you, but I thought I’d share it anyway because I was so shocked when I learnt it : if you ever design a #survey, make absolutely sure that you order your negative to positive scales the same in all questions. Think it might not matter that much? People barely read the labels! We had two questions that followed each other with opposite orders. ~95% of responses for the first ones were positive, ~95% for the next one were negative!!! ...
1/2

Yep, that’s the spirit of Christmas! Thanks, #eBay. 👌🏽
