except the article being discussed is focusing on a change in interview process led to hiring more women engineers. it isn't about how a company fixed a cultural problem (such as the one Uber has), it's just about gender diversity in the workforce as it relates to interviewing process. the implication of the article title is that "brogrammer" just means "male programmer" but that's not what it means. you and I know that it means "dickhead chauvinist programmer" but the title of the article uses it to refer to any male programmer.
- koverstreet 10y agoThe article wasn't just about diversity, it was very much about how the hiring process affects the type of personalities you attract. And I don't see where the article implied that brogrammers meant male programmers in general. Besides, is it so hard to believe that lack of diversity is one of the enabling factors for a brogrammer dominated culture? Because I 100% believe it.
