I detest the tech bro mentality in DH, but sure as hell, I got a look at our new lab computers with dual 24GB graphics cards, and I instinctually whistled and put my hands in my pockets like I am my Texan grandfather. If only I could have gestured at it with a Lonestar cracked ☺️ - ThreadSky

Digital humanities. The "do you even code" energy is real real sometimes for what are mostly book nerds.

Another case of misogyny and anyone not being cishet male not being taken seriously or just outright dismissed even when they're as good as or better than a male in the same industry, sport, interest area etc?

Tbh especially when they're better as the male ego is threatened.

The best technologists are not “tech bros” at all. The best realize there’s always something more to learn, there’s always something to analyze, and the best approach these tasks with a humble, curious attitude.
