This #WITDay, we're celebrating Martine Postma. She's the activist and former journalist who started the Repair Café movement.

“I wanted to do more than just write about it,” Postma says. “More and more people don’t feel good about our throw-away society and are ready for change. [They] don’t throw away because they want to, but because they don’t know what else to do.”

From a colleague of mine:

I would love to invite you to Colorado Startups' upcoming, Women in Tech Panel!

Being a woman in tech can mean so many things -- it's not one role in just one sector, and during our event we'll explore many of those possibilities with our panelists. Our panelists, who are accomplished Colorado leaders in tech, will share more about their unique paths in tech and show us that there are many ways to find fulfillment in our careers in tech as women. We'll learn from their journeys in engineering, product, growth, ops/hr and from current startup founders. We'll learn about their career highlights, learnings, challenges, and insights. We'll get to learn from their wisdom and and advice, and we'll be able to celebrate the strides we have made as a community and discuss how we can continue to open doors for opportunity for more women in Tech.

Join us on 4/30 at 4pm in Denver and connect with other women in tech through meaningful networking opportunities, learn from leaders in our community, and grow a powerful network of women in tech in Colorado!

This is an event you won't want to miss! Can't wait to see you there!

Sometimes being an open-source maintainer is nice. I haven't done paid consulting for the GNUstep Objective-C Runtime for ages (I wasn't doing enough for it to be worth the tax effort and I'm not always able to commit to doing things in a sufficiently timely fashion to set up the expectations that being paid creates), so I added a note a while ago telling people to donate to Murray Edwards if they find the project useful.

Last week, I got the following email from the nice folks at Algoriddim saying (abridged):

I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that we appreciate your continued work on the GNUstep runtime, and that we’ve made another donation to Murray Edwards to support women in computer science.

Always nice to see things being paid forwards.

<<The whole Fediverse is waiting on unite.social with a Mastodon, Peertube and Friedica server for UN staff to connect with Fediverse users.
We are all keen to see campaigns like #WomenInTech spread across the Fediverse.
We believe that the UN is a role model and can support others to come over to the light side by setting an example.

Please, please, make a difference.>>
