Can you quote the exact portion of his post that made this claim?
If not, then why did you state it??
> he completely ignores the fact that ratios in other high stress high prestige professions such as medicine and law [0][1] (which have dramatically higher barriers to entry than technology while also having a much stronger historical precedence for being male dominated [we forget that programming was female dominated until the 70s]), while not even, hover at around 2:1[0][1] as opposed the 4 or 5 :1 we see in technology.
That sucks that he ignored that. Fortunately, others have addressed it. Here you go:

(in particular, section IV). So, there it is, addressed, as you requested. You are still wrong, and the google engineer is still right.
