I am going to support Cory Koski's comment on your post:
I don't know what your intentions are, but you have a post titled "Stop saying learning to code is easy" and a photo of three women with laptops. Are you trying to make a correlation of women being glib about the difficulty of software development/programming?
- yborg 10y agoI don't know why the parent post is even trending on HN, it's content-less trivial fluff, but I also facepalmed at the inclusion of the picture. I'm not a supporter of the idea of the "patriarchy" meme, but putting this picture on a post like that certainly implies at least an unconscious association in this guy's mind. Good thing he's a "former professor".
- rimantas 10y agoIt says nothing about the author's mind, but your comment and the one above says a lot about their authors. It's you making the asumptions.
- shanselman 10y agoThe three young women are programmers sitting in the NYC Microsoft office. They are my friends and the image is part of the WoCTechChat CC Image collection. There is no correlation. Flip a few coins and it could have been three men or a combination. Sorry if it felt correlated, it's not.
