We Can Do Better – Visualisation of gender disparity in engineering teams (do-better.herokuapp.com) 12 points by Peroni 12y ago ↗ HN
[–] Hytosys 12y ago ↗ Cool visualizations! I wonder if the title of this page could be less condemnatory, however.
[–] Taurenking 12y ago ↗ cool visualization, but apart from that I don't see anything special about it...yes. There are more men engineers than women. So? [–] astrodust 12y ago ↗ That sort of thinking is part of the problem.50% of the people in the world are female, so why are they under-represented on these teams? It's a sign something's out of balance here. [–] joaren 12y ago ↗ Because today, despite 60% of college grads being female, only 16% of comp sci students are women. Choices. Agency. Isn't that what equality is supposed to be about?
