Yeah but gender and race diversity (the qualifications mentioned in the article) still discriminate against poor white males.
I am fairly certain that a poor white guy would have a very different perspective from one who grew up in a life of privilege but that socioeconomic diversity doesn’t look as good I guess.

Am I the only one to notice that HN goes full communist when, and only when, affirmative action for minorities and women is the topic. Those poor white men don't really get mentioned much otherwise.
- watwut 9y agoI observed the same. When women and blacks are topic, white poor men are consideration and victim or huge unfairness. Any other time, they are suckers, lazy, should have learn coding, don't have merit, yadda yadda. Kinda like gentrification is good thing and people pushed away got what they deserve and no one is entitled to live there. Untill it is tech workers who can't afford live in SV and suddenly it is all about egoism and YIMBY etc.
