Uncaught Exceptions

Welcome to our third episode of “Girls Night!”. Today we’re diving into harassment online and at the workplace. We will be going over our own experiences with the online tech community as well as reporting on the recent Blizzard-Activision scandal, which unfortunately led to a female employee to take her own life. We will be discussing the actions that need to be taken by companies and women in tech allies to ensure the safety and comfort of women in an industry that, sadly, still has the reputation of being hostile towards underrepresented groups.

Is Ripple (XRP) developing a use case for NFTs? Will Algorand's mining reward program be a hindrance to becoming a fully decentralized blockchain?

This is our second episode of the series in which we dig a little deeper into the Elizabeth Holmes case. Was she a hero for getting as far as she got as our only woman in tech representation, or a villain for all the atrocities she committed? Additionally, we discuss the halo effect, the advantages and disadvantages of being a woman in power, sexism in the workplace, being assertive as women and our personal feelings towards marriage!

This week we are joined by two awesome creators/engineers Jess and Scott. We discuss career change, history of the internet, and so much more!

Our friend and fellow TechTok content creator Joe Karlsson joins us to discuss his journey into the Tech and content creation space. We even had a surprise guest appearance by "fake" Scott Hanselman!   

Joe Karlsson is a software engineer turned Developer Advocate at MongoDB. He comes from the frozen tundra of Minneapolis, Minnesota (and yes, it does get really cold here, and no, not everyone here has the accent from the movie, Fargo). Joe has been primarily a Node and JavaScript engineer. He has been writing, teaching, and talking about code his entire career. Sharing what he knows and continuing to learn about programming is truly the thing he loves doing the most.
