We’re here with Ask a Progeek, and the questions keep coming. This one is a bit sensitive – and one with exploring.
When applying for a job, there is sometimes a voluntary section about demographic information (where they ask about gender, ethnicity, disabilities, etc). In practice, is it better to fill that out or leave it blank?
This usually isn’t a concern for us Progeeks, but it’s something that bears thinking about.
So I attended the Zero1 Biennial main exhibit. If you’re not familiar with it, its an every-two year exhibit run by the Zero1 network a group that promotes arts in Silicon Valley. The theme this year was “Seeking Silicon Valley”, so the theme was even more techno-artistic.
The short theme of my review? Go, both as a geek and as a progeek. But if you want more details . . .
The latest news on 3D printing got my attention, so I have a few thoughts at Fan To Pro.
