Stop Telling Women They Just Need to Know How to Code
- dragonwriter 13y agoI've yet to see even one person telling women they just need to know how to code to magically produce female Zuckerbergs, so the article's entire premise is, AFAICT, beating a strawman. In fact, in all the things about improving the number of women coding, I've never heard either: 1) That a major goal is to produce female Zuckerberg's, or 2) That women learning to code is the only thing needed to achieve any of the major goals that are cited, just that its one of the things, and often the one thing that the organization in question is focussed on. If producing female Zuckerbergs is important to the author of the post, they ought to present their plan to do so without conjuring phantom disagreements.
