  Im trying to register, but it says my password too weak, even though I have 8 characters/numbers.
  Does it require extra special characters?

  The nodebb registration / email validation has been the thing Ive had most problems with over the years on my own instances

  Yes it wont be included as an option until v4, hopefully will be main branch soon.
  Im running the Beta with it in though.
  I have an idea for something that can run on top of that, but my coding level isnt quite upto it. Do you mind if I DM you my idea?

  Totally agree. And sometimes I wonder if organisations giving grants 'to only women' (of whatever classification) isnt just perpetuating prejudices (if there is still any).
  I know it comes from a good place but 'grants for people who need them' to get into the industry (for whatever reason) might be more sound!

  Re LGBTQIA+, Im going to have to google what the IA+ groups are, as this mnemonic keeps getting longer lol

  Hi Jessica, your knowledge base and skills seem way above mine, so great to have your input.
  On your topic of gender (which in an ideal world is irrelevant), I don't know why there are fewer women in I.T. than should be expected.
  In the summer a female friend attended a "Women in I.T." meet up in London and came back saying many of the women at that meet were trans. That wouldn't matter matter to me, but it was around the time of the olympic debate, when the media were questioning whether birth gender should matter in competitive situations. In this particular case there were grants available for women to train in I.T.
  So similar to the 'Olympics level playing field discussions' do you think any assistances only offered to women should equally be available for Trans women?
  We dont normally have political / social discussions on this site, but it is an interesting topic.
