  The nice thing about computing is that everyone starts behind, but with a computer with Internet connection and the disposition to learn; You can get ahead.

    (The difference being that if you accept that there are deep cultural problems in STEM environments wrt diversity, anyone who isn't a white male starts further behind)

    The bad thing about computing is that a computer with an internet connection can deliver a whole world of hate right to you. Often by the same media (email, twitter, etc) as the information you'd need to get ahead.
