Author, Yegor Bugayenko, is misogynist in worst of it. I listened to him being guest on a podcast, where he told that women brain is unfit to perform logical tasks, like coding or planning, and that women are much more fit at home kitchen than in any office.
And I wish I was exaggerating, but one of the hosts was female programmer and he tried to convince her that she's inferior as professional because of her gender.

- freeflight 8y agoWhat podcast was it?
- Svoka 8y agohttps://radio-t.com/p/2017/06/03/podcast-548/ https://radio-t.com/p/2017/06/03/podcast-548/ (1:26:00) It is in russian though. Egor answers to a question, why his company has only 2 female coders from 500. His answers is a joke "Female Coders are like guinea pigs, neither Hyena neither Pigs. So lets not try to make programmers from women, because they they'are not women and not coders"
- chomp 8y agoHey, I think this is an ad hominem argument and not really relevant to the hacking -> sociotech argument the author was trying to make.
- Svoka 8y agoAny article from him is about self promotion. He is trying to promote his views among which are extremely sexist and disgusting ones. He also promotes his startup and anyone backing it should know whom they're dealing with.
- retox 8y agoHow is that relevant to this discussion?
- Svoka 8y agoOnly reason for this article is self promotion, which includes promotion of extremely sexists and racist views he exhibits.
- Svoka 8y agoTo be clear. This is not relevant to the topic. Just in case you would like to invite Egor to speak at some conference based on this article, I want you to know what opinions you'll get in the "package".
