Das ist ja nun wirklich sehr bewegend, und wie es scheint durchaus typisch fuer Jürgen Habermas als Mensch und Korrespondenzpartner.

Ich hatte als Student sehr ähnliche Erfahrungen mit weisen Autoritätsfiguren, denen ich meine überschwenglichen Arbeitsentwürfe schickte. Sie erkannten das ernste Anliegen hinter meiner jugendlichen Arroganz und waren willens, mich großzügig zu ermutigen. Dafür bin ich unendlich dankbar, und ich habe mir seither solche Großzügigkeit meinerseits auch zum Vorbild genommen. Es ist sehr schön und es rührt mich persönlich, hier nun von Ihnen ein solches Beispiel von Jürgen Habermas zu sehen, gerade am Tage seines Todes. Danke, dass Sie das hier mit uns teilen!

En cette fin d'année, n'hésitez pas à prendre le temps de réévaluer vos idoles/mentors. Ce n'est pas parce que ces personnes vous ont inspirés/aidés à un moment de votre vie que vous leurs êtes redevables ad vitam. Si vous n’êtes plus en adéquation avec leurs discours actuels, vous pouvez unfollow sans regrets. Elle n'ont pas gagné de passe-droit parce qu'elle étaient éloquente sur un sujet.

Listening to Eric Branner's podcast on mentorship really hit me—most great mentors start as friends. I’ve been asked how I find mine, and this nailed it. The best mentors become lifelong friends. Great listen: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5j3ob0KpjX8dxehmtfcGlC

My former professor and mentor Hans Wilderotter died suddenly and unexpectedly and it is perhaps only now I realize how much he shaped who I am today. I am grateful for having known him and my thoughts are with his wife and those closest to him. My hat is off to one of the kindest and most knowledgeable people I have ever known.

I'm volunteering with Mentor in Tech (MinT) again this year. MinT is a fantastic program where tech professionals (not just devs!) mentor overlooked and underserved students.

If you are in tech and looking for ways to give back, this is a great one. It's a 1 hour/week commitment and MinT provides mentors with really good structure and support. They're always looking for diverse mentors (read: queers, POC, writers, program mangers, etc).

Leading departments, organizations, or even open-source projects can put enormous pressure on those in charge. Yet, we seldom invest in leaders and expect them to figure it out on their own. As organizations, we should take the plunge and provide our leaders with coaches and mentors.

#rust #mentors #rustmentors

For many years now, I've been a part of the rust mentorship programme:

https://rustbeginners.github.io/awesome-rust-mentors/

I possibly get maybe one or two emails a year, asking me for help -- and often is the case that the person I end up speaking to just tends to "disappear"; I'm not sure why. I don't **think** it's me, per se -- although it might be! I don't recall ever being rude.

But just a few weeks ago, I had someone contact me, and so far, he's utterly genuine. He's asking all the right questions, and it's an utter delight to be able to help him. THIS is what I signed up for all those years ago -- to be able to do this for someone else. He's not doing this to solve a homework question, or anything. He's preempting possible changes to the language stack where he works.

Amazing! I'm the lucky one being in this position.

How many other #rust #mentors are out there? It's made me think about the group I'm a part of. We never meet or speak as a group, and I feel we ought to.

If anyone is interested in this sort of stuff, let me know.

Oh, and by the way, I am *NOT* an expert on Rust, so I'm learning all the time --- be it on my own or through mentoring others. But this is the point -- mentoring doesn't imply "guru", but moreoever, it denotes a relatioonship of trust to figure out the right thing, together. :)

I can't stress enough the importance of #DEI in #hamradio and other #STEM, #STEAM, and #STEMM activities. There simply ain't enough old white dudes with cats to keep #amateurradio going. Besides, wouldn't you like to #mentor someone young who is not like you? My first #mentors (#elmers) were a white couple who taught in #Montclair (#NJ) public schools. They gave me my novice test in their apartment. (I'll never forget getting bitten by ants as I took the exam on their couch. 😂 )

Parque Lleras was more than just a place. More than just a park. It was a sanctuary. A place of shelter for trans women like me. A haven of fierce, defiant beauty and community. The home of my chosen family.

The profound impact of good teachers, mentors, and role models is difficult to overestimate. It’s a gift that shapes our very values, character, and trajectory, and one that, as our writer discovered, lasts a lifetime. #teaching #education #mentors

“In recent years, my academic perspective has evolved. I wish to remain active in research, but more than teaching, I want to share my passion. My passion is mathematics—its structure, its theorems, and ultimately, its beauty. I believe that by sharing this passion, I can inspire others to appreciate the elegance and depth of mathematics. I aim to create an engaging and stimulating learning environment where students can explore, question, and develop a profound understanding of mathematical concepts. My goal is to ignite their curiosity and foster a lifelong love for the subject, just as my mentors did for me.” - Liliana Esquivel
