I think it's not unreasonable, if one is in an oft discriminated protected class, to aim ones career / expense trajectory towards stability for the next couple decades. (Prioritizing remote, focusing towards subfields where there's more tolerance, working for companies in financially stable industries) The law, currently predicated on the difficulty of discriminating en masse without leaving a paper trail, will take a while to catch up with de facto use. Hell, there's still no legal prohibition in most of the US on things like Equifax's salary history reporting. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Work_Number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Work_Number
