How on earth did this get published... Here's my main question, as stated by Marco Rogers: "This is what I don't understand about these white dudes. They will <i>admit</i> to a history of racial and gender discrimination. Yet they insist on starting current arguments from the basis that the representation we see today is justified. How does that make sense?" <a href="https://twitter.com/polotek/status/894551256596832256" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/polotek/status/894551256596832256</a><p>This was a cover article in the Atlantic: "Why Is Silicon Valley So Awful to Women?" <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/04/why-is-silicon-valley-so-awful-to-women/517788/" rel="nofollow">https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/04/why-is-...</a> Discussion <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13871915" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13871915</a><p>Gender disparity is extra high in computer science and engineering subjects. <a href="http://d3i6fh83elv35t.cloudfront.net/newshour/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Cummins.bachelors-degrees-1024x553.png" rel="nofollow">http://d3i6fh83elv35t.cloudfront.net/newshour/wp-content/upl...</a> We know there were historically more women <a href="http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/computer-programming-used-to-be-womens-work-718061/" rel="nofollow">http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/computer-programmin...</a> so it's not like you can argue that it's just momentum, let alone genetics.
