I really enjoy your writing, in particular you have a way of articulating some complex points very clearly, so I'm somewhat hesitant to respond here since I feel like I'm about to get schooled, but don't groups like Girls Who Code advocate for getting more women into tech? I saw a story today about Sundar Pichai attending a coding event aimed at getting young girls into tech so I would presume Google is supportive of these initiatives.
Now mind you I have absolutely no problem with this, I think getting broader swathes of society into tech is a good thing, but I think it's fairly clear that their are groups advocating for this.
- foldr 9y agoGirls Who Code are not forcing girls to code.
- Inconel 9y agoYes, I understand that, which is why I explicitly said they were advocating for it, not forcing it. Unless I completely misread danso's post, he was asking which groups advocate and/or are forcing this, the and/or to me signifies that doing one, the other, or both qualifies. Maybe danso can clarify if I misinterpreted the question, in which case my apologies.
