He is trying to fund a printed version of his web comic about some guy who apparently collects comics and how his wife doesn't approve. He will still offer his hilarious comic online, so why should people buy his prints? Well, there will be even MORE comics about how the wife disapproves of the comics!

THIS IS A DERAIL, SKIP IT IF YOU'RE NOT INTERESTED Mr. Beeblebrox, you have chosen not to receive PMs so I'm continuing a derail and hoping it doesn't cost me :tenbux: Zaphod42 posted:More CEOs are men than women, but its because more men are willing to put in more hours to make more money and get more promotions, where more women want to go home after the day and spend more time with their families.  This is, has been, and will continue to be the reason I make about $.80 for every $1.00 my male counterparts make. I do not have children, I will never have children (I'm past that age anyway, thank you), and I work my rear end off. This is a horrible thing to say without immediately following up with a big fat ol' AND JUST WHY IS THAT? quote:Just because women don't choose CS doesn't mean they can't. Actually it does mean they can't. It's a bit of victim-blaming. A corollary: Black people from the poor areas of Baltimore can just choose not to be poor anymore! It's their fault most of them remain poor and many choose to enter a life of crime. This is no choice at all, Holmes. Check out this study http://www.bridgew.edu/soas/jiws/nov05v2/leaders.pdf and look around page 64. You'll discover the top 3 commonalities among upbringing of women leaders. They are: Very wealthy Very influential families Very educated (which means wealthy too) If a woman isn't any of those things, she's probably out of the race. I grew up with none of those things, but had no brothers and thus my dad made sure I knew how to use the computer. I'm a rare case. Chances are the women you work with are also rare cases. Thousands of years of societal pressure forces women into a role, poor black folks into a role, white men into a role, etc. Fighting against that takes a MASSIVE amount of energy, money, time... or self-awareness. quote:See, to me that's bullshit. When interviewing people, we absolutely DO look for interest in CS outside of classes, we look for passion, just like you said. Sure. Now, the way women and men show that passion is different. Men show it by building things outside of class. Women do not show it that way. They show it (paraphrasing here) by generally being very, very quietly good at it in class. Women do NOT tend to work on CS projects outside of class. If you make that the qualifier for showing passion, you will not hire many women - who are qualified, and who are passionate. Think about a cultural difference, eh? From your writing, I'm going to assume you're located in or around Seattle at one of the Big Three. We interview loads of folks from other countries, right? And we have to be very very careful not to judge them with American eyes. "He took a moment to form an answer before he would speak." "She had downcast eyes for much of the interview." "He refused to shake hands with me because his religion forbade him touching the opposite sex!" Now, really consider this: How is that judging (which is ethnocentric and wrong and actually against the law) different from measuring, with your male American eyes, passion in only one way? I've seen passionate-about-CS folks from India, Pakistan, French Canada, China, Japan, Australia, Finland, etc, etc (this is what I get for having done 800 tech interviews at my company  ). And... each of them showed passion in a different way! i.e. Indian folks don't tend to jump around a room and speak excitedly. Asians may tend to blow you away with their after-class projects.It's... it's the same thing, brother. quote:Look at what you said! Women don't think about CS outside of school, but... they do think about what they can DO with CS? That counts! If you go home and write up some software to manage your grocery list; How does that not show passion!? That is precisely what we are looking for! You don't have to sit at home reading CS textbooks, nobody does that. You come up with your own projects. That's a perfect example. So I don't know what the hell you mean to say women don't show interest outside of class, except when they do. That's a contradiction. If a girl writes her own game or a way to help sick people, that's an amazing resume. they don't actually build it quote:Those who don't show any interest outside of class and are just passing through a CS degree, male or female, are ignored. Those who show passion are hired. Gender isn't really an issue, other than as part of a larger cultural drive for women to settle down and men to be breadwinners, and sure that isn't ideal, but that has almost nothing to do with CS. Good lord, man. Microsoft, Google, or Amazon? Just curious. There are a thousand thousand factors that go into what women "choose" to do, same as men. Check out Linda Hirschman's book about women and working: http://www.amazon.com/Get-Work-Life-Before-Late/dp/014303894X. That large cultural drive that you mention? Yeah, that's the factor. And CS (and the dwindling numbers of women in tech) is a huge loving canary that tells us we haven't really come that far. When you decide to measure passion in only one way, you are doing your company and that candidate a disservice. quote:Again, my boss, and my boss' boss are female, and we just hired a new female engineer because she demonstrated proficiency in development versus the guys we interviewed that all seemed clueless, even though they have degrees. Interviewing for programming jobs is nearly impossible, you get tons of applicants who have no clue. We hire whoever can pass the tests. Yeah, I know that song . I've been heavily involved in recruiting technical folks for... well, a lot of years (I'm old, so sue me). I know it's hard. It's really hard. But think about trying to see passion-for-CS in a slightly different way. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

While I think "if you don't want to dedicate your whole life to CS then  " is a stupid attitude to have, saying "they show their passion by being good at it in class even if they don't do anything extracurricular" sounds off to me as well. If you have two candidates who both do comparably well in class, but one also does extra CS stuff on her own initiative, why wouldn't you pick that candidate? I just don't see how you can say that "doing what's required of you well and no more" demonstrates passion. I did well in plenty of classes that I had zero passion for just because I wanted the grade.quote:How is that judging (which is ethnocentric and wrong and actually against the law) Cicero has a new favorite as of 23:40 on Mar 28, 2013 |

Hyzenth1ay, it seems like the crux of your argument is that while men show their passion by doing extracurricular work, women show it by doing the required work with passion. Sorry, but that sounds like a load of crap. Yes, people show their passion in different ways, which is why you have a huge variety of different types of personal projects that passionate people work on. But going to class and doing your homework very well does not require passion, at all. When people are passionate about something, they want to spend more time doing it, I simply cannot think of a case where this isn't true. And I'm sure there's plenty of women out there who are passionate about these things who would find it insulting that you'd suggest they have a 'different way' of showing passion.

What? That's loving stupid Orzo. Some people show passion by working on one thing very hard, some people show passion by working on multiple projects, and societal pressures tend to(a phrase Hyzenth highlighted multiple times) pressure women and men into showing their passion in different ways. I'm a dude, and currently a history student and not comp sci, but I show my passion by looking very hard into specific things. For instance last semester I did a research paper on the integration of Muslims and Islam into Chinese society up through the Ming dynasty. I spent as much, if not more time researching it than people with much broader topics, but just because I only focused on that one specific topic doesn't mean I was less passionate. You seem to look at the breadth of someones work as the only way to judge someone's passion, but depth is also a valid way. Speaking in more CSish terms, is someone who who writes one extremely optimized, thoroughly documented, well tested program less passionate than someone who writes three technically working but hacked together programs? Of course not.

Of course not. He's saying that if you really love doing programming or painting or whatever, you will be doing your own projects in your spare time in addition to the work you're set for class or your job. It's not about bredth, it's about the desire to work on personal projects outside of the allotted time from work or school or whatever. Taking art/animation as an example, when show creators do doodles and sketches and stuff from their show in their spare time I think it does demonstrate a greater "passion" for the project than in people for whom it's just a day job, even if they do that day job really well. HOWEVER, "passion" ain't everything! If you do your computer programming job really well and then go home and work on model airplanes or whatever, you're still a drat good employee, and in fact I might be more likely to hire you because I know all your programming headspace is being used thinking about MY projects not yours. And as you say some people show a different kind of dedication by doing what they are set way better than is strictly necessary and spending much longer on it than they have to.

I thought it was some kind of batter, so the dialogue didn't make any sense to me. As a woman studying CS I've found that people didn't and still don't expect me be studying CS. People thought I'd go on to studying English or any arts related field. But my dad always wanted me to go into the sciences, 'cause he is an engineer and he wanted me and my little brother to study something worthwhile. So he bought us lego mindstorms and told me about how CS would be a good idea. We started out three girls my year, out of about 60. I'm the last one now and I think we're about 30 left. I don't speak for anyone but me. But I don't want to nurture people. I had the grades to become a doctor, but I would've made one of those lovely doctors who lack people skills. And I don't want to be a doctor. I want to learn how to make games, apps and other stuff because I find it awesome. I read news on tablets and computers, not because I want them, but because they're awesome, and I could waste a whole day reading about specs and comparing them. And I write lovely little programs because I want to be able to go beyond what little programming we were taught in actual courses. I also know that different universities have different ideas of how much programming should be taught. Some weigh heavily on the practical aspects of CS, others are more theoretical. If I should give any reason for me to have been deterred from choosing CS, it would be expectations. Had my father not pushed for me to go into CS, I would probably have gone for animator or architect, because that is what others expected of me. Now, let's look at this guy: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1585021231/project-1-your-portrait-painted-in-a-simple-and-na?ref=recently_launched I looked at his website, and I actually like his paintings.

I'm with Paper Gazelle on that one; though I am fairly charismatic, I really like CS and I got into computers at a young age... and while I'm early in my school's CS program, I've already written a number of programs and applications (especially games) with knowledge I consumed before I got to college. There's no way I can just do my schoolwork, I want to know more, so I'm always thinking about it and researching whenever possible. Anyway, back to the topic at hand... batshit insanity for only 70k! I find it most hilarious that no pledges have been made. Usually people full of shite conspiracy theories and UFO horseshit attracts a crowd of (surprisingly well-off) like-minded people. But this chap? Nope...

I used to drop them in the milk and hold then down until, like a drowning, the bubbles stopped coming up (or slowed to one or two every few second). Then I'd eat the soggy cookie with its firm filling while bits of the cookie remained, slowly turning the milk chocolaty.

Ville Valo posted:No glass ceiling at all, women just keep having babies and aren't willing to work long and hard like men. In general, compared to men, women tend to not advocate for themselves as much as they ought to. Here, watch this. It's pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18uDutylDa4 Anyway, this thread used to be fun. Now it's just turned into a bunch of goons frothing at the mouth in their nerd-rage frenzy. Ok, maybe the woman is a scam artist, maybe she is just stupid and misguided. I don't know. Much of the evidence against her is assumptions about things people don't understand. I personally think she is just naive and went about this in a silly, incomprehensible way. Less "Nigerian prince" and more "how do I internet." Yeah, it's retarded and she really should know better than to do just about every possible thing to make yourself unlike-able on the internet. As far as the Kinko's thing goes, she wasn't squatting a domain. If you think that anybody - nevermind Kinko's - will pay $100 million for a domain name, you're a dumbass. And a $100 million acquisition doesn't mean that she personally got a check for $100 million. Again, if you believe that you're an idiot. WHO KNOWS what she got. Presumably a decent amount, but without knowing literally ANYTHING about the acquisition or her particular equity stake, it's impossible to say. And yes, many entrepreneurs do re-invest most of their money into future ventures. Did she? How much money does she have? Nobody knows. Presumably enough to send her kid to an $800 camp, as she has admitted, but the point of the KS wasn't really "Help lift me out of poverty." So it doesn't really matter. All of you thinking she's mega rich because she's an  entrepreneur are ridiculous. More to the point, KS should maybe have taken this down as it does skirt their rules. They didn't. Tough poo poo. Whoever was complaining about his yearly salary being half of what she raised, boo loving hoo. Unless she is personally taking money from you then it really doesn't matter. Do something about it instead of researching how to be pissed off at some woman on the internet. I'd understand the rage to a degree if it was OBVIOUSLY a scam, but that's not really clear (yet, anyway). It's just retarded. And even if enough people want to fund this project (I'd guess most of them are middle-aged parents who are equally ignorant about games and internets anway) then WHO GIVES A poo poo? Nobody is forcing anybody to pay money. None of it affects YOU. And whining about how "OH, this looks to be the end of Kickstarter" is retarded beyond belief. No, it's not, because the amount of rage spittle flying around here is somewhere around the 99.9th percentile of everyone who has heard of Kickstarter. If KS goes out of business within 4 years I'll buy 10 people avatars. Hey look, someone is selling a stupid, lovely, cheap product in Publix. Oh! This looks like the beginning of the end for old Publix! Give me a loving break. I don't even give a poo poo about this woman or her retarded project. Somehow your ridiculous nerd rage is actually more annoying. Instead of this circle-jerk about how - thanks to old Susan - your life is now meaningless and food turns to ash in your mouth and your boss just lowered your salary and furthermore, How about posting some more stupid projects?

Is he living in a world where video game development has dried up? Where no one is making games anymore? Or maybe everyone just makes Angry Bird knockoffs? KS is really a huge enabler for Sperglords who believe they're the only ones capable of saving video games, or anime or whatever. What's really sad is that his "site" keeps using the term "We" when the only person mentioned is the glorious leader himself. I really think these people eventually kill themselves when their projects tank, or they go deeper into their illness, convinced that The Powers That Be stopped their campaign from being successful.

Most people say they are "ideas men" but this guy is crowdsourcing that too. This must be some kind of kickstarter benchmark. What I want to know is, will they be making this for the Ouya. These are the important questions.
