I don't understand your (repeated) point. Are you defending the status quo? Are you claiming that nothing done in industry matters?

- Kalium 12y agoI'm saying that the gender gap manifests well before issues in industry can reasonably be expected to take their toll. Which is not to say that there are not major problems in industry. Just that there are problems upstream of those. EDIT: In other words, how you word a job posting definitely has an effect on who applies. It probably doesn't have a huge effect on the decision of a sixteen year old girl considering taking a computer course.
- MartinCron 12y agoGot it. I read the story about applying to jobs with overbroad requirements more of a "glass ceiling" thing than a "glass wall" thing. Even if you've got a tech industry job, you might be less eager to try a lateral move.
