Why does it not work the other way round, some women with bad experiences don't overrule the good experiences of other women? For what it's worth, many of the accounts of "bad experiences" didn't really convince me,

From 100 thousands to Billions is kind of rags to riches. And even so - you are saying he doesn't deserve his success? It doesn't count because he went to Montessori school?

Most "studies" of that are rather distorted, you have to read very carefully. For example they may summarize that many women have experienced discrimination at some point. That can mean in 4 years of study, somebody once made a se

Not everybody becomes a Billionaire, but most people with intelligence and skill amount to at least something. The luck factor is mitigated by people trying several things until they succeed. You throw out the hypothetical example of the ta

"> Whether it should be possible to be arbitrarily rich is another question. You were so close to getting it, what happened to you?" There is a difference between limiting how rich anybody can get, and taking everything away fr

I'd like to have more data on the women graduating from bootcamps. Maybe it is a desperate move of aging single moms who find they can't make a living with their degree in English Literature? While most men who are interested took

He has been going at it consistently for many, many years now. He just happened to be lucky year after year? Most people don't even try, but it doesn't stop them from accusing people who put in the work and who take the risks from

"Unfair capital advantage" Well, again, start accumulating capital, if it is such an unfair advantage. "I, too, am in favor of a 100% wealth tax upon death. No more freeloading failsons." I am absolute against such a thi

We know that because he did it. He literally proved it by becoming a Billionaire. Yes, lots of people were alive in the exact same time when he started Amazon.

Why exactly is inequality a problem? Because people suffer from their envy? People starving, having no health care, low life expectancy, that sort of thing, are problems. Their neighbor having more money in the bank is not really a problem.

It's not about bad faith, it is about showing the absurdity of aiming for representation of people by sexual preferences.

Sorry I have difficulties parsing what you wrote. What exactly do you mean? Who are the bad actors?

Presumably there are people who are being exploited in the world. But to claim in general poverty is a result of exploitation seems very questionable. Start with basics. People live in the woods, with nothing. Some start building a hut from

Arguably, almost everybody in the Western world has gotten rich. Go visit a medieval castle sometime. The standards that now everybody has required an army of servants in the old days. It is just a hateful lie of the left to claim "bei

Afaik his finding are disputed. And even if not, why should it even be desirable to encourage labor? If capital is so great, people should seek owning capital, not seek to work more. As they say, savings plans start at 50$/month. It se

It's certainly not "toxic all the way through". That's such an insulting assumption. I bet you for example that at engineering university women are more likely to get help than men.

But why would you expect women to be more like to choose the approach of not graduating than men, though? Women have the same options to attend university as men. It seems more likely to me that the proportions of applicants without a degre

When I hear statements like that, I always wonder if they try to hire 2% pedophiles, too. About 2% of people in the real world are supposed to be pedophiles, so if they want to reflect the real world, they should aim to hire them.

by pksdjfikkkkdsff 7y ago
The article claimed that 50% is the goal. And if people aiming for diversity don't have 50% as a goal, somehow I have never seen them name another number that they would consider satisfactory.

I don't know what your question refers to, tbh?

Women (or any other group) can't speak for themselves about properties of the group. Everybody is just an individual. Statements about groups can only be made by using statistics or at least observance of several members of the group.

It's abuse of statistics to fabricate a nonexistent problem. People do it because it works so well and is so easy. Everybody wants to help women and "marginalized groups". So with some superficial, misleading statistics, you

Because you would sacrifice your kid's wellbeing just to make some arbitrary, meaningless statistic look good. And do you think women having to work with computers all day would end up being less grumpy than men who have to do it? Why?

I've always said women are too smart to become programmers. I'm pretty sure it is better for the soul to have a job with more people interactions. (Yeah I know there are meetings and you have to communicate with clients - still, y

There are many stories of people who had horrible experiences with Google interviews. White people get anxious, too. You acknowledge yourself that those feelings may be irrational, but nevertheless I wanted to point out that you don't

Because they make it so in the admissions process. How is that even an achievement? OK they get female applicants, which presumably is not automatic. But then to tune admissions so that you get to 50% is not really something to be proud abo

So her claim is that going to t top tier university is a complete waste of time and money, because boot camp graduates end up being just as capable? What are top tier universities doing to keep being competitive with those low cost boot cam
