Microsoft is why I stepped down as co chair and why I had to stop participating in node. Microsoft is why I’m not speaking this year. Microsoft is why I constantly question whether or not I’m good enough or belong in tech.

Anyway. This was only known in backchannels and by friends but I wanted to say it publicly. i didn’t want to write a medium post about it. I just want people to know my story and to stop asking me why I left Microsoft. It’s because I was forced to.

Please just wear a mask and sunglasses, CV Dazzle is a pretty dated study by now and facial recognition especially using IR mapping can recognize you with paint on your face. I know it looks cool but it’s just not that effective.

There are four things I’d like to encourage every software engineer to do: 1. Always set your undereye concealer with powder to prevent creasing. 2. If you want to fake sick just go into work without makeup. 3. Use as many emoji as you want. 4. Always wipe from front to back.

I will say I do not think every team at Microsoft is bad. Everyone at Microsoft isn’t bad, but there are some intense shitty things happening and they have extremely broken systems and no way for people to get out of bad situations.

@FabioPontual @FreakzShadow @jessebickers @david_morgen @Collider What? No they’re not. Saying “straight for tv” makes it seem like a hallmark movie when Netflix is working with plenty of the same talent as studios doing theatrical releases, if anything they’re giving smaller mid budget filmmakers a chance again which big studios obliterated.
