Because without diversity of thought and a commitment to equality for all, there's no moving forward. So, if you have colorful hair? We don't care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That's cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world-changing ideas? Be you, with us!
