I don't understand, at all. Also, is the implication at least in part that Mark Zuckerberg is a role model for entrepreneurs in Hacker News?

- lifeisstillgood 14y agoIf Mark were Mary, do you think the trajectory of FB would have been the same? If so, why? If not why not. It's just one way to try and see our own filters. But anyway the premise seems to be that success is bestowed upon you from on high, and if on high is mildly and subcociously sexist they don't do it so well. I fear the real world has a lot more factors involved than patronage from senior management.
- mikeash 14y agoCertainly there are other factors, but patronage certainly helps. Just because you can make it in other ways doesn't mean there isn't a bad bias, and exceptional cases are an awful way to address the needs of the masses.
