Comment on: Forcing women into programming is a fucking mistake

No.
Just no. I had to work with a diversity hire whose only previous experience was Team Beach Body instructor prior to going through a bootcamp.
The sooner we get past this "everybody can code xDDDD" phase the better.
I deal with this shit at work. Every perky pair of tits that thinks they're a "coder" is god awful. They don't understand critical thinking and are nothing more than an HR diversity hire. Same goes for most blacks.
The sad thing is, I know very solid female programmers. They just aren't perky pairs of tits. They're anti social, have poor hygiene, and are not your Karlie Kloss Koder HR cover girl.
