Asking for help for the UW systems lab women. As the sexual harassment situation drags on with no end in sight, the grad students are now unable to afford their lawyer.

OMFG, the fucking SIGOPS CARES committee undercut our climate survey at SOSP by announcing their own survey immediately before at the business meeting and saying that it would only take 2 minutes to take instead of 20 and didn’t have any “problems” in it.
