So the point here, hopefully, is to allow truly talented female coders to overcome the bias against women generally, which exists because of the fallacy of averages.
Hopefully, the idea is not to push the erroneous view that women are on average equally good at coding than men. That is objectively untrue.
I can, with enthusiasm, support a technology which helps the (smaller number of) women who are genuinely good coders to shine through the bias. I cannot accept any technology which seeks to mask the reality that in this particular domain of modern life (coding), men are usually better performers than women. Because that would be regressive.
- infinite8s 10y agoDo you have a reference or any data to support your assertion that women on average are not equally as good at coding as men?
