When People Assume Youre Not In Charge Because Youre a Woman Role incredulity is a form of gender bias where women are mistakenly assumed to be in a support or stereotypically female role — an administrative assistant, nurse, wife, or girlfriend, for instance — rather than a leadership or stereotypically male role, such as CEO, professor, lawyer, doctor, or engineer. While this slight or mistake might seem innocuous, it can have real ramifications for women. Women must expend extra energy and time to assert and prove their role. Their words may lack the credibility and authority inherent in their position. And when women are not seen as a leader, they may be less likely to be hired into male-dominated roles or to be considered for promotions.
While the real issue of role incredulity is systemic, there are steps organizational leaders, workplace allies, and women themselves can take to prevent and correct it., including setting organizational norms, being an ally, owning your mistakes, and, if you’re a woman, proactively identifying your role.

WorkWork | � |  | WorkTropical Storms in California Are Rare. The Last to Make Landfall Killed Nearly 100.   Other tropical storms have brought tropical storm-force winds to the Southwestern United States, but just two have made landfall in California. Besides the 1939 storm, the only other tropical storm to make landfall in the state was on Oct. 2, 1858, when a hurricane shook San Diego, damaging homes, uprooting trees and causing inland flooding. The Daily Alta California described it as “one of the most terrific and violent hurricanes ever noted,” according to a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration paper on the event.

Scientists are eagerly anticipating the next solar maximum, forecast for 2025, curious to see if the planet’s clouds bloom soon after.

Medical care is more rudimentary than in the US military, and soldiers are often evacuated under chaotic conditions to overwhelmed hospitals and aid stations. Russians recruited from prison to fight in Ukraine said they were often sent into frontal attacks against fortified positions and abandoned on the battlefield if they were wounded. Work | � | | WorkSix Arkansas schools to offer African American AP course despite restrictions  The state told districts last week that the course would not count toward graduation credit, days before the start of school for most students. The state has said students could still earn high school graduation credit through an African American history course the state offers, though it is not advanced placement. WorkSusan Sarandon sues over 'extensive problems' with $2m eco dream home  In the current legal action, Sarandon said the Clarksburg, Massachusetts-based construction management firm's owner misrepresented his qualifications, inflated invoices, charged for construction he never did, and did essentially nothing to justify being paid nearly $140,000 to act as the property's caretaker under an agreement struck after the house was built. | � | | WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkJudge Throws Out Accused Bomber’s Confession as Derived from Torture  Carol Rosenberg has been covering the U.S. naval base at Guantánamo Bay, including detention operations and military commissions, since the first prisoners were brought there from Afghanistan in January 2002.

If the storm isn’t over land, a first and possibly even a second landfall is possible. WorkWorkWorkHurricane Hilary Churns Toward Baja California  At some point, someone took an Adirondack chair from the Big Sur River Inn and set it directly into the Big Sur River so that the current washed over its legs.

WorkWorkSpaceX's leaked financials reveal Elon Musk's appetite for growth  Remember when Musk was obsessed with bitcoin? SpaceX purchased a significant amount of the cryptocurrency, but lost $373 million on the investment in 2021 and 2022, and now has sold all of those holdings. That follows a similar pattern at his electric car company, Tesla, which lost $140 million on bitcoin in 2022 after re-titling CFO Zachary Kirkhorn as Master of Coin in 2021. Kirkhorn left Tesla this month. WorkA $40,000 Nvidia chip has become the world's most sought-after hardware  “It’s one thing to get access to infrastructure. But it’s another thing when, for example, you may want to scale the application, then you suddenly realize that you don’t have enough capacity that’s available,” said Arun Chandrasekaran, a Gartner analyst who focuses on the cloud and AI. “So I think it’s going to take some time for really these challenges to even out.” WorkHow to hold on to great employees, according to LinkedIn's COO  Attrition is always costly, and although attrition is lower than usual in this economic environment, it’s likely to rebound sharply as the economy strengthens. By leaning into your top performers to enable internal mobility and upskilling, not only can companies give employees more fulfilling careers: they can also hang on to those employees, grow them in their ranks, and thrive in any season. WorkEnvironmental activists are fleeing Elon Musk's Twitter  Currently, there is no social media platform capable of replacing X, so those departing the platform have nowhere else to congregate. That puts at risk all manner of processes of sharing ideas, coordinating responses to extreme weather disasters, alerting citizens about floods, organizing pre-hurricane evacuations, preserving biodiversity, and engineering climate change adaptation. The “exodus of environmental users on Twitter,” the study’s authors wrote, “is an existential threat” to the fight against climate change. WorkWorkTwitter, now X, to remove blocking feature  Musk has been clear that he wants his \"digital town square\" to be a platform where all voices are heard, but he\'s running the risk of bumping up against both app store terms and conditions and social media regulations around protecting users from online harms.
