In a slack discussion about sexism and gender equity in the sciences, my colleague accidentally typed "scientits" instead of "scientists".

I still think about this daily and I still want a T-shirt with that word.

Once upon a time they told us, girls don't like math. They told us, computers run on math.

Lies and damned lies.

Math can be fun. But nobody likes how math is Taught.

Computers run on logic.
