Time for a new #introduction as I have moved servers 😀

Being queer is not a choice it’s what you were born
Being queer is not a fault, it’s how you were born perfectly

A 2nd #introduction is needed:
I'm Victor, Clinical Data Scientist researching in #AI applied to medicine.
Although AI is something that interests me from many aspects (technical, mathematical and critical) I do not limit myself to write only about this as I have many other interests (#opensource, #python, #SocialJustice, #diversity, #books, #comics, #basketball, etc.).
Also, I speak SP, EN, DE & FR
Looking forward to interact with the Dair-community.
If you pick up a copy of Star Trek Explorer this month, you might see a familiar face! I'm honored to be an IDIC Award Winner for my work in accessibility, diversity, equity and inclusion. Thank you to Star Trek Explorer for featuring me and also for supporting everyone who demonstrates the ideals of Star Trek in real life. LLAP! 🖖🏿 #StarTrek #cosplay #StarTrekExplorer #GeordiLaForge #LeVarBurton #Accessibility #Diversity #LLAP #IDIC

➡️ Dear @HennaVirkkunen @alexandrageese @Saramo @bartgroothuis @manuelaripa @EUCommission,
This innovative network reflects #democratic values, promotes #diversity and strengthens #CivilSociety & businesses. It deserves support! 🙌
Quick #introduction.
#UNIX system administrator since 1996, when I started working as a webmaster in an NCR MP-RAS system.
Born and raised in Madrid (Spain), lived in Cambridge (UK) and moved to #Catalonia in 2005 where I live with my three sons.
The main topics I care about are #feminism, #diversity, #WorkerRights, #FreeCulture and #OpenSource.
I write and boost content in multiple languages (#Catalan, English, #Esperanto, Spanish, French, #Japanese) about a broad range of interests.
Next steps! Please consider getting involved in tenants/workers unions and in community groups, especially if you're also a young person.
Change is about more than voting once every 5 years; it is something we must all collectively fight for day-to-day!

“Virtually every institution seized upon that term, ‘diversity.’ And I always ask, ‘Well, where is justice here?’ Are you simply going to ask those who have been marginalized or subjugated to come inside of the institution and participate in the same process that led precisely to their marginalization? Diversity and inclusion without substantive change, without radical change, accomplishes nothing.”

As volume of pollinators is declining fast globally, every little counts.
Funded by EU, City of #Helsinki and City Transport have started fabulous initiatives and experiments to increase the diversity and pollinator friendliness of the cityscape: green roofs, a sprayed on green wall, a pollinator roof with bumblebee nests for a metro station and flowering bustop made of recycled construction waist.
NSF’s canceled grants heavily affect women, Hispanic and Black PIs although they represent <34% of PIs in active grants.

Target foot traffic after "scaling back its diversity efforts":
⬇️ down 4% week of Jan 27
⬇️ down 8.6% week of Feb 3
⬇️ down 4% week of Feb 10
The decrease in traffic could be due to many factors. Costco traffic, however, is up over the same period. #target #dei #diversity #deia

Die 80er habe ich als "Sp*st" verlebt. Egal welche Behinderung man hatte, man war der "Sp*st". Die Hälfte der 90er war ich gezwungen, in einer Behinderteneinrichtung zu verbringen. Als ich dort weg war, lernte ich Behördenterror kennen, auf den mich keiner vorbereitet hatte. Vorgesehen war, für immer in Sp*st*häusern zu "leben".
It’s strange, isn’t it? Disabled people are seen as both “inspiring” and “pitiful” by the same society. Two extreme reactions, yet both rooted in the same issue: ableism.

Ableism doesn’t just marginalize; it dehumanizes. When society devalues disabled people, it’s a profound violation of their basic rights and dignity.
We must challenge these attitudes and affirm that all are equally valuable and worthy.

#Trump revokes a 1965 order banning discrimination in federal hiring.
Trump on Wednesday revoked a 60-yr-old #ExecutiveOrder banning #discrimination in #hiring practices in the federal govt, his latest action aimed at gutting #diversity, #equity & #inclusion initiatives.
His order, which the WH called “the most important federal #CivilRights measure in decades,” [said without irony] revokes ExecutiveOrder 11246 signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965.

Gibt es Unternehmen die Vorbildlich im Bezug auf #Diversity sind ?
Und wie misst man das? Verdacht/Idee: schauen, wie WENIG weiße able Männer (mensche wie ich also) dort sind , in Führungspositionen, Belegschaft und vielleicht auch Eigentümerschaft... ?
Kann sicher nicht die alkeinige Metrik sein, aber vielleicht ein gutes Indiz?
