"easier for white males to find those resources you posted above" Yes, the Google really cares what sex, gender, or race I am when I enter "learn programming".

"easier for white males to find those resources you posted above" Yes, the Google really cares what sex, gender, or race I am when I enter "learn programming". </sarcasm> There is a good point that you have to have access to machines in order to program them--then again, we'll ignore that most real computer science didn't have those machines when it was being developed. Even at that point, though, we need to be arguing "Hey, economic status should not be a barrier to entry for programming!" instead of "Hey, why don't you (male, white) folks open the clubhouse to everyone??" There are enough traditional interests trying to bring those bigoted politics into our field that I'd rather we just focus on embracing and educating everyone, and let the inclusion issues sort themselves out.
