Can't wait to see a second cohort take part in this programme - it is already changing my life and I am grateful every day to be part of such an inspirational group of women! @TechUpWomen#TechUpWomen#WomenInTech#WomenWhoCode
Awesome , inspiring first talk from #techupwomen#alumna Samantha Larbi #TechUPReunion22 “Tech is for everybody” - “No one at school told me about working in tech” <- this needs to change 👍🏽
For those at the back: you don't need to compare making something "easy to use" with "your mum could use it". It's an outdated, lazy analogy to insinuate women/mums aren't technology literate. I'm a mum. I also have a computer science degree. And so do many, many others #uxdesign
Three years of this Twitter account = roughly three years since I started learning to code. Now I work as a software engineer, and I'm still learning! #WomenWhoCode#WomenInTech#MyTwitterAnniversary

Maha Salem discussing anthropomorphising robots and how adding errors (lovable flaws) to robot behaviour can make them more fun and likeable. Even though people don’t totally trust the faulty robot they will still follow its orders. #TDC22
