And yet, a significant portion of the comments on HN when this topic comes up:
* Claim that there is no problem, and/or
* Condemn any action to address this as anti-egalitarian because it treats men and women differently
- amorphid 10y agoI do my very best to treat people equally. For me, that is done simply by to focusing on what it takes to get the job done, trying to not be an asshole, and expecting everyone I work with to do the same. Is there more to it than than?
- badsock 10y agoIf some people don't want to put any effort into making society more just, that's fine. Just so long as they don't get in the way of people that do, or take pot shots from the sidelines without offering any alternatives.
- formula1 10y agoI think the topic about equsl pay is much more heated than why women arent into engineering. To be honest, engineering is a lie. You are hired as a upgraded mechanic and they want to pay you as cheaply as possible. Nobody cares if your talented, creative or have a great personality. The ideal programmer shutsup, is efficient, is free and provides more than the customer asks. The reason why women dont get into engineering is probably associated to their disgust with that kind of work. "Intelligence" means nothing when you only have enough power that your boss gives you. Aka, enough power to do your work or get replaced
