| | Pythagoras-level potential Happy Tuesday! Today at Technical.ly, we held our monthly editorial brainstorming session with our newsroom, during which we explored various topics related to the tech industry. We delved into questions such as: What technical skills are essential to know now, and how can we develop them? What nontraditional paths have led to successful tech careers? How many computer science graduates are coming out of local universities, and where are they getting hired? I must admit, I'm excited about our upcoming editorial calendar for April, and I can't wait to see how we explore these topics further. But, let's keep this between us for now. We’ll be asking for some feedback collectively soon or you could just email me if you have tips. During our session, I couldn’t help but think about the two high school students, Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson, from New Orleans who made history by solving an "impossible" math problem that proved Pythagoras's theorem using trigonometry. This accomplishment got me thinking about the youth we serve here in Baltimore and worldwide, and how an early start in math can lead to successful careers in STEM. Let’s celebrate Calcea and Ne’Kiya today for our Women in Tech & STEM history newsletter! I'm enthusiastic about continuing to explore these topics and shining a light on the brilliant minds that are making waves in the STEM industry. Keep me posted if you want to talk! — Technical.ly reporter Alanah Nichole Davis (alanah@technical.ly) | | | | By Experts told Technical.ly most social media companies are stuck in a cycle of reacting to hate speech after atrocities, not taking steps to prevent them.
