The minorities called "Asians" and "Jews" have an intelligence advantage of up to one standard deviation over the rest of us. Without any other information, a high-tech company like Intel should find them the most qualified.

How many of those resumes with women's names cited membership on the football team?

One woman, and she comes in at number 26.

The list goes on, well past 100, and that's the only woman in the top 100. http://fabpedigree.com/james/mathmen.htm

Right out of school is when women are most likely to get pregnant and quit work, after their employer has spent perhaps $10,000 getting them up to speed in the company environment.

It's been more than 40 years since the AAUW could be considered an honest organization.

When you say the same obnoxious thing more than once, you've moved from troll to flaming asshole.

But you know what, a male will never have the same bond with a child as the mother, because that's biologically impossible.

Placenta.

There are 2 factors here that I've come across. One is that times change, and in engineering environments the atmosphere has become more sexually egalitarian over the last 50 years. The other is that it depends on the company you keep. In an all-male engineering department, there's likely to be vocal disparagement of women, but if there's even one woman engineer there (assuming she's not a pathetic whiner) the atmosphere is all respect and work.

Individuals are not property of the state, and from that single fact everything you said collapses.

Depending upon the state and a person's willingness to apply for all government-provided largess, a single mother can get more net money and money-equivalents not working than an honest person grossing $60,000 a year and paying taxes. Of course, illegal aliens with multiple stolen identities do much better than that.

Several years ago, there were news reports on an electronic device applied to the legs that provided sexual stimulation ... for women. Thinking about the geometry involved, I suspect the connections would have to be different for a man.

Transmitting specific emotions, not to mention actual control, requires too much accuracy to be effective at a distance. The thing to fear, if fear you must, is that the government will mandate implants that make such control possible. Doubtless many politicians would want such control, and many other people, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MFlHGP0VAc (Motels, Total Control)

One of Niven's characters had a watch implanted in his wrist. Surely you could have a photocell implanted in your head; all you'd have to do to get high is take off your hat in the sunshine.

Louis Wu is a wirehead.

The rest of us call it Kennedy.

Each antibiotic resistance that a cell strain evolves is likely to include a burden that makes it harder for that strain to compete in the wild.

Develop an antibiotic. It works for a while, then bacteria evolve immunity to it. Stop using that antibiotic for 100 years, the bacteria lose immunity. Start using the antibiotic again

Lather, rinse, repeat.

I hope.
