What we need are more females typing on inexplicably noisy keyboards going bleep bleep bleep while a camera zooms in Jason Borne style while the music builds up the tension until....."I'm in!"
And yet the differences are stark.
We deny biological differences at our own peril. Even if your goal is to have more women in tech (a goal I don't personally understand but whatever), you're not going to get anywhere without considering all the FACTS (which was James Damore's whole point).
Female employee diversity at Google from 2013 to 2016 was completely flat. Their diversity project was an abject failure. Obviously, there was no glass ceiling. Women just have better things to do that sit on their ass all day coding!
This is the dumbest post of the day.
The reason there are fewer female geniuses is largely biology. Women are nature's safe bet, while men are the wildcard. Men fill the prisons and somehow I don't hear feminists wining about that!
Also, men have more compartmentalized brains and deal wit stress better (on the whole). This lends itself to a narrow focus on logical problems for extended periods of time.
We also live shorter and less socially active lives. It's not like a career in math or science is the ultimate goal in life FFS!
Veterans of GamerGate aren't surprised at all.
This shit goes deep. "Google Ideas" is where all this BS is sprouting from. It's run by social justice activists. Hell, the whole company is run by these crazies now as evidenced by their CEO and the CEO of YouTube.

'Member when Google made tools which were cheap and easy to use?
'Member when Google was focused on making their company valuable and vying for our business?
'Member when Google had competition?
'Member when Google wasn't evil?

If this bothers you, I think you might be in search of difficulty in your life.
There has been a war brewing between old and new media. These two videos (if you can excuse the pithiness) summarize it well:

LOL, all electronic voting systems have central tabulators which are inherently insecure. There is no way to make electronic voting secure without a blockchain.

the purpose of the SEC is to protect investors from unscrupulous companies. Do you really want the kinds of markets we had before the SEC was around?
It's irrelevant what the purpose of a law or agency. The only thing that matters is its effect.
Yes, the markets functioned better before the SEC. The real intent of the SEC is to make sure you're not allowed to invest in competing financial instruments and to make investors completely and utterly gullible.
I dumped Zuckerbook years ago. This madman is out of control
I honestly got tired of being lied to.

Nice phrasing to avoid gendered pronouns there
They'll have long conversations in the hallways about Sharia law, fearing being raped by Tea Party members, and the totally real country of Limpopo
