At least they're openly admitting to it. Blizzard is also bragging about how 43% of their new interns are women, which way more than the number of women cs grads. This isn't whataboutism because you can't complain about pay disparity if the groups don't start on a level playing field.

- viraptor 5y agoCS degree is not required for most software engineering jobs. (Even less likely for entry ones) I certainly hope that most of them are not CS grads.
- Aunche 5y agoDo you genuinely think that 43% of self-taught programmers or students in introductory CS classes are women?
- viraptor 5y agoNo, but that's not the point I was making. Depending on where you advertise, you can get 43% non-men applications as long as unnecessary restrictions like cs grad don't prevent it.
