Quite a lot of useful points brought up on this WNYC panel on women, technology and the changing workplace. I found the choice of panelists very diverse and hence the wide array of perspectives brought on. Particularly loved Stacy-Marie Ishmael’s points on seeking diversity not just in terms of gender but also background and ethnicity, as well as her wise advice to learn to create rather than feed into the recent obsession with coding. Well worth watching and quite inspirational!

Gazzetta dello Sport hosted a video hangout with defensive legends Paolo Madini and Giuseppe Bergomi, to discuss the upcoming Inter- Milan derby. Expectations and predictions came from both sides, with mutual agreement that Milan has gained some additional confidence from their midweek Champions League win over Barca which could tip the scale just a tiny bit in their favor.
In assessing both sides’ squads, Balotelli’s influence came up and how he can decide the game. Maldini thought his Inter background won’t be an obstacle once the match has started since he is focused on his Milan career now. Bergomi mentioned Cassano’s pairing with Guarin could also prove dangerous for Milan’s defensive starting line. Maldini mentioned being surprised by Constant’s solid performance and that his improving defensive play will be crucial in stopping such attacks. The conversation finished off with a short discussion on the wonderful atmosphere that San Siro always provides at the derby.
