This document discusses barriers facing women in tech careers and efforts to promote more diversity. Statistics show women are underrepresented in tech and other STEM fields. Common barriers include long working hours, stigma around career breaks for family responsibilities, and lower pay. Some initiatives aim to support more women entering tech through mentoring, school programs, and groups for female geeks. However, there is debate around whether quotas should be used for events or if that undermines perceptions of merit and quality.

This document summarizes a regional seminar about the successes of connect:transmit, a program that used community radio to develop young people's speaking and listening skills. The seminar aimed to share the outcomes of connect:transmit and start a conversation about how community radio stations and educational organizations can benefit from working together. Over 200 community radio stations in the UK are required to deliver "social gain" and give voice to local communities. Connect:transmit worked with four community radio stations and found that 90% of participants improved speaking and listening skills, especially in confidence and adapting speech for different audiences. The results suggest the program was most effective for disadvantaged youth. It also strengthened relationships between radio stations and youth organizations.Proyecto upelsequeracarolina

The document describes how to boot a BeagleBone Black from an SD card containing two different root file systems on separate partitions and run programs from each one. It involves cross-compiling two simple C programs that print identifying messages and copying them to their respective partitions. By changing the mmcroot setting in uEnv.txt to point to either the second or third partition, the board can be booted to run one program or the other from its dedicated root file system on subsequent reboots.ansible why ?
