In fairness, he didn't call it, "How to explain REST to your wife" or "How to explain REST to your grandma". He is talking about his own wife, which happens to be ignorant about computer science. There is no assumption on his part.
- dextorious 15y agoMost women are ignorant about computer science. It's a fact, not an assumption. If you want the hard numbers check the number of ungraduates/graduates in CS/IT, for males and females. I'm saying that women are not capable of grasping IT (hell, the very first programmer was a woman, mrs. Lovelace). I'm saying that in actual, real life, they statistically don't want/care/attempt to. Maybe they are just smarter and go where the big money are these days (biology), as well as the better hours.
