Yes= . It should absolutely be a technical topic. There are plenty of places for m= en to go to hear what it=E2=80=99s like to be a woman in tech. We don=E2=80=99= t need to spend the time of five or six women to keep telling them it=E2=80=99= s hard and here=E2=80=99s one weird trick we use to make our days easier (ar= gh, I give a D&I talk, I would never ask anyone to give a D&I talk, i= t=E2=80=99s really quite stressful and a lot of vulnerability) 

So now the questions are what tech= nical topics do we want to be on a panel about?

My work experience is with QA and for fun I=E2=80= =99m building a selenium scraper to get some public data from New York City w= hich I will then put into Postgres and clean and then hopefully combine with= other data and then learn something.
