Brianna Wu is an American video game developer and computer programmer. She cofounded Giant Spacekat, an independent video game development studio with Amanda Warner in Boston, Massachusetts.[4] She is also a blogger and podcaster on matters relating to the video game industry.[5] In October 2014, Wu posted multiple tweets about Gamergate advocates,[16][17] ridiculing them for "fighting an apocalyptic future where women are 8 percent of programmers and not 3 percent."[18] While she was monitoring 8chan's pro-Gamergate chanboard (/gg/), anonymous users posted sensitive personal information about her, including at least one post containing her address. Subsequently, Wu began receiving multiple, specific rape and death threats including her address, causing Wu to flee her home.[19] These threats have been widely attributed to Gamergate supporters.[18][20] In December Wu received e-mails at her corporate account that contained images of mutilated dogs from people who identified as Gamergate supporters, following the recent death of her dog, Crash.[21] Along with Anita Sarkeesian and Zoë Quinn, Wu is frequently cited by the media as one of the targets of some GamerGate supporters' harassment of women in t --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/theyoungjurks/support

Glenn and Susie are joined by Brianna Wu of Giant Spacekat, who gives us some real talk about developing games for the next Apple TV. Elsewhere, we talk iOS 9 and the new iPhone 6s.

On this episode we talk with Brianna Wu.   Brianna is a video game developer and cofounder of Giant Spacekat, an independent video game development studio. She stopped by for a bit to talk about her journey through the gaming industry.   Don't forget to stick around for the after show!

Amanda and Aleen talk about the amazingness of stickers, animating games, work/life balance, breastfeeding, and the Giant Spacekat origin story.

Today is the second half of Josh Marsden and Ben Thompson's interview with entrepreneur, game developer, podcast host and equality advocate Brianna Wu. Brianna Wu learned a ton from her parents and thanks them for a number of opportunities in her life. As a child, if she ever wanted to learn something, her parents gave her the resources and told her to 'go figure it out.' That mentality taught Brianna to be self sufficient and independent. When Brianna sets her sights on something, she sticks with it until she makes it happen. "The Giant Spacekat Starship should have exploded many times but we pushed through." This attitude is evident not only in her company Giant Spacekat, but also in her actions for equality in the tech industry. Brianna Wu left us with some valuable lessons: Exercise, the mind cannot live without the body Be honest with yourself, keep on your 'mission objectives' Get a support network of friends Here are some additional links: Google Guys on Amazon and iTunes Revolution 60 for the iPhone and iPad Follow Brianna on Twitter or just 'read the news' As always, a special thank you to The Strand for our intro and outro music!

Danielle Keats Citron is Lois K. Macht Research Professor of Law at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law. Brianna Wu is Head of Development at Giant Spacekat and a well-known public speaker on issues affecting women in tech. Most Internet users are familiar with trolling—aggressive, foul-mouthed posts designed to elicit angry responses in a site’s comments. Less familiar but far more serious is the way some use networked technologies to target real people, subjecting them, by name and address, to vicious, often terrifying, online abuse. In an in-depth investigation of a problem that is too often trivialized by lawmakers and the media, Danielle Keats Citron exposes the startling extent of personal cyber-attacks and proposes practical, lawful ways to prevent and punish online harassment. A refutation of those who claim that these attacks are legal, or at least impossible to stop, Hate Crimes in Cyberspace reveals the serious emotional, professional, and financial harms incurred by victims. Persistent online attacks disproportionately target women and frequently include detailed fantasies of rape as well as reputation-ruining lies and sexually explicit photographs. And if dealing with a single attacker’s “revenge porn” were not enough, harassing posts that make their way onto social media sites often feed on one another, turning lone instigators into cyber-mobs. Hate Crimes in Cyberspace rejects the view of the Internet as an anarchic Wild West, where those who venture online must be thick-skinned enough to endure all manner of verbal assault in the name of free speech protection, no matter how distasteful or abusive. Cyber-harassment is a matter of civil rights law, Danielle Keats Citron contends, and legal precedents as well as social norms of decency and civility must be leveraged to stop it.

This week, we're celebrating Women in Science by looking at the victories and challenges of women working in science and tech.

Comedian Rosie Tran (@FunnyRosie) interviews Brianna Wu (@Spacekatgal), head of video game developement at Giant Spacekat, about her recent articles in the press. Giant Spacekat is one of the few all female gaming companies, designing games with strong female characters in a heavily male dominated field. Brianna was recently featured in multiple online articles, including Polygon.com and interviewed on NPR, regarding her experiences in the gaming world. From death and rape threats, to daily online harassment, many women in gaming have had to leave the industry due to misogyny, sexism, and blatant hatred towards women who seek to create games beyond the typical "cute and pink" genre or who refuse to create female characters who are purely sexual in nature. Empowering and enlightening interview with a true trailblazer in her field! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/out-of-the-box-podcast/support
