Is it still as bad as 13 years ago? Two women in our entire year for compsci.

in my university's department, computer science & engineering (the official name) has ~14% women, or about 175 out of 1200 students

the college of engineering as a whole is about 21% women, which is above average for engineering colleges

if it's the US isn't it some sort of equality law where you really need to actually try and balance race/sex/gayness in the workplace? *stares at the one female in the classroom in bewilderment*

No. You just can't keep any evidence that you were actively being sexist, orientationist, racists.

can you imagine if that was a law and 99% of straight non-black male programmers are out on the street dancing for pennies. i don't want to live there man

anyways since i actually closely worked with a talented female codemonkey i can only support shoeglaze's theory. she's twice the coder my dumbass is and went to the same dumbass school for the same dumbass degree. likely she drinks more coffee than whiskey tho

sup, bitch?
but seriously, one out of 40 interviewees is good enough to hire, and only 3% or so are women, so the odds of getting one that's both good and a woman are basically zero.

we fix this by hiring many mediocre women.
