I've seen a waiting line at every bathroom for every conference I've ever attended. Waited in many of them too. One of the constants of the universe it seems - no matter how big the venue, there are never enough toilets.
...though what this has to do with people being jerks is unclear. Am I to understand the Pycon CoC addresses event coordination and venue selection? And there's a section in there about number of bathrooms? If so, now I definitely want a link, if not, I'm just grasping at straws admittedly, because I have no idea what your comment is supposed to be about otherwise.
But apparently, asking you to prove a statement is "sea lioning". Asking someone to uphold the most basic characteristic of discussion among intelligent people, the burden of proof, is now somehow seen as a thing to be avoided.
If we're going to talk about things on Hacker News, could they be please be done using the normal rules of debate/discussion instead of these bizzaro world ones?
- jordigh 11y agoThe point of mentioning the women's line is that most tech conferences are not inviting enough to women for there to be enough women to form a queue. The actual proportion of female participants can be easily found online, I think.

- rockdoe 11y agoThere's the prior of the total number of women involved with the (respective) tech, though. Of course it's a self-reinforcing cycle because the conferences being hostile is clearly one thing that'd keep them out.
