I don't understand how this relates to inclusivity.
- hhjinks 7y agoObviously because women are less able than men to follow good code heuristics. No seriously, how the fuck else am I supposed to interpret that demand?
- plorkyeran 7y agoI've worked with developers that get angry at a single trailing space on a line, and developers who seemingly can't comprehend the concept of indentation, and definitely can't spot code formatting problems. With the help of a code formatting tool both are perfectly capable of working in industry and I haven't seen any particular correlation with actual ability to write software, but one of them is going to get much better grades than the other in a class that grades on code style.
- Kiro 7y agoStill not sure how that is related to inclusivity. Who is getting discriminated?
