I had read those, but I didn't see anything military right-wing in them.

Maybe men's rights advocates mostly fight about unreasonable feminism then. If you have any links to reasonable feminism, I would be glad to receive them. I am still looking for examples for that.

I read the first article you linked to, but couldn't find any reference to rape threats by Men's Rights Advocates. That some women receive rape threats on the internet is an entirely different matter. There have also been episodes

So advocating mens right is equal to being a rightwing military cult person? Are you really of the opinion that men's rights are not important? Also, ad hominem...

There are many famous female coders working atm, I think there is even a web site dedicated to them. The problem is when you require a "wave". Then people start getting really confused about statistics and correlation vs causation

"It’s not because I can’t speak as well or I don’t know the material — it’s because he fits the mold so much better." Did you ever test that assumption?

Maybe you should do more fun things with your kid? You could even leave the house together with the kid. A further step might be visiting other people with kids, leaving the kids to play with each other and their parents with time to drink

Maybe they sere not disadvantaged because general standards are low? Actually the topic is a can of worms, we could go on about the purpose of school. I suspect teaching critical thinking is not what schools really want - they want to provi

"I do believe that all private schools (...) have the right to teach whatever inanity they decide" In a way I agree, because it's kind of like free speech. On the other hand, shouldn't a society be responsible for protec

Well sure sometimes work is necessary. But too many people never question it. That is what I worry about. Working at the gas station will only get you through the day, it will never set you free. I think there will be enough opportunities f

You might want to add a spoiler warning to that, as the actual mechanism behind it is not immediately revealed in the story :-) Still, I don't see why the Predictor couldn't work in the same way - how would you determine that it d

I'd rather teach how to earn money in an enjoyable way. "This is work, it's unpleasant but it earns you money and keeps you alive and we all do it because we have to" is not really the message I want to convey.

Reminds me of Comed-Tea in "Harry Potter And The Methods Of Rationality": "If you drink it, something surprising is bound to happen which makes you spill it on yourself or someone else. But it's charmed to vanish just a

I think you are fooling yourself by constructing a more complex scenario that is therefore more impenetrable. The story already says that the light flashes one second before you press the button, or rather no matter how hard you try, you ca

The women I know learn and learned a lot of things, just not computer science. Why is computer science better than other things?

Are girls really not given Legos? I find that hard to believe. And while perhaps they get dolls, boys get toy cars, which don't teach you anything technical either. I actually checked Amazon this christmas and if you looked at the &quo

"So her message to girls is "Hey, you can create apps to use in emergencies to help people." Or, you could end up optimizing ads, working in some badly ventilated open plan office. (This is what every developer in my city see

I think in many cases you don't need generics because you can use the interface mechanism instead. The way Go does it is a bit confusing at first, so I suspect many Go newcomers don't really understand they could have used it. As

"Honda could use this information and market the Civic as "the best" car for eating at McDonald's." There might be a horror scenario in there somewhere, but this isn't it :-)
