Hello everyone! :lgbtqosm:

We are a new community #DEI initiative for #OpenStreetMap hoping to become a respected group to improve diversity all around the OpenStreetMap community!

To introduce myself, I'm Freya (@Venefilyn) and I created this as I found a lack of a community initiative to increase accessibility coverage within OpenStreetMap and be a safe space for individuals and groups who want to find others like-minded and strive for a safe space in organizing events or other things! 🙏

I agree with everything Scott Hanselman writes in this post.

Context - someone on the birdside are blaming #crowdstrike on DEl hiring Here's the thing folks. I've been coding 32 years. When something like this happens it's an organizational failure. Yes, some human wrote a bad line. Someone can "git blame" and point to a human and it's awful. But it's the testing, the CI/CD, the A/B testing, the metered rollouts, an oh shit button to roll it back, the code coverage, the static analysis tools, the code reviews, the organizational health, and on and on. It's always one line of code but it's NEVER one person. Implying inclusion policies caused a bug is simplistic, reductive, and racist.
Engineering is a team sport. Inclusion makes for good teams. Good engineering practices makes for good software. Engineering practices failed to find a bug multiple times, regardless of the seniority of the human who checked that code in. Solving the larger system thinking SDLC matters more than the null pointer check. This isn't a "git gud C++ is hard" issue and it damn well isn't an DEl one. 口参O 12,698 417

Zoom Layoffs Target DEI Amid a Broader Pullback on Diversity Initiatives 🙁

"Zoom is following in the footsteps of Google, Meta, and other corporate giants that have used layoffs to cut back on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs."

Happening now at #GNOMEAsia2023: @gnome co-founder @federicomena and @zana presenting on the GNOME Code of Conduct, the story behind why it was created, and why the GNOME Project made the decisions they did when implementing it. #DEI

Later on, a shout-out to @downey too, who could not make it here in-person!

A stage with a podium and projector screen. An Asian woman and a Latino man are standing. The GNOME Foundation vision statement is shown on the projector screen.
