Run-down:
This is our last podcast before school starts, and we want to talk about Amazon’s new TenMarks writing coach.
And we like the idea of shutting down hate accounts all over the place that’s spreading like wildfire in the wake of Charlottesville.
We also loved the NY Times article about the dangers of that whole lonely genius nerd stereotype.
We don’t LOVE the graph NPR released tracking when women stopped coding but we love the attention to the problem. Now let’s fix it!
And we want to tell you how TECH helped the visually impaired enjoy the eclipse – safely.
