"This stack ranking process systematically undervalued female technical employees compared to similarly situated male employees because, among other reasons, it meant that lower ranked employees were inferior and should be paid less and promoted less frequently regardless of their actual contributions to Microsoft," Moussouris' lawyers write in the complaint."
From the article, I see nothing that singled her out as a female. It only pointed out the unfairness of the ranking system, regardless of gender.
I have to chuckle at some of these lawsuits that I've been seeing recently. Men have been dealing with this kind of bullshit and unfairness for many years. It's only now coming to light because women seem to think that it's sexist, when in reality, it's pretty much equally miserable for all.
It just so happens that more women are entering the workplace to experience it.
When we've banned your account, you can't just make a new account and start doing the same thing over again.
We're happy to welcome someone back to the community when they give reason to believe that they'll follow the site guidelines in the future. But not otherwise.
Since you passive-aggressively banned my account by not actually telling me about it. I'm going to passive-aggressively come back and continue to post.
I'm not sure what you are referring to when you say "doing the same thing over again".
My posts aren't offensive or against the rules.
You really need to take a good look at yourself in the mirror: the truth hurts sometimes and banning opposing view points as being against your community rules (which they are not) is a problem and only contributes to the echo chamber of Hacker News.

On the contrary, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10174306. I warned you several times before that and asked you more than once to put an email address in your account so we could contact you about this.
We bent over backwards not to ban you because we don't want to be accused of banning users for political reasons—which of course we don't, but it's an accusation people like to make. Unfortunately, you don't seem to want to use HN in good faith, so you're banned until that clearly changes.
