"I suspected as much."
Every Support Engineer should have the heart of a code writer.
In a jar on his desk.
These stats mean nothing.
I imagine that if a study was done which uncovered factual data to the effect that men write better code than women, it would never see the light of day.
Do Whites create better programs than Blacks? We will never know. It would be racist to find out.
But it’s always awesome to learn that women are better than men.
Cherry picked data and arbitrary measures used by someone with a point to prove and the ability to bend the data and come up with some ‘conclusion’ to prove the ‘conclusion’ they started out with.
I so wish the sound engineer would make his voice easier to hear on that dang show
I see this as quite likely fact, being women write code better.
Let’s face it, women are made for clerical duties, such as writing. And number two, regarding code, they always communicate in such a way they cannot be understood, which supports the notion they communicate in code.
So there you have it, women write better code. They are naturals!
Imagine the world with all female coders.
Haha.

They based this conclusion on 12% of the users.
I see no way to draw such a conclusion on such an incomplete sample, in either direction.
I note that the excerpt failed to mention the relative percentages of female and male. (Or at least I failed to see them - LOL) In a self motivated group, a smaller population may well signal an already winnowed population.
But are the women willing to code for days on end, without talking to other people or even showering? I rest my case.
The ratio of male to female software developers 20:1.
This has not been my experience.
One thing most of these studies never factor in is the blind eye of money. Money doesn’t care if you are white, black, orange, male, female, female with junk, male with no junk. Money doesn’t care.
If women actually made 75% of what men make for the same quality work, wouldn’t businesses overwhelmingly hire them? With H1B visas we see that quality can be lower as long a the price is cheaper. So if women make less than men for the same performance, companies would only hire women.
If women wrote superior code for the same or less pay, they would be overwhelmingly sought out by businesses.
Bull$hit masquerading as a scientific study. If the conclusion had been different we would not be hearing about it.
Didn't I see a story to the effect that github is currently in the throes of a Social Justice Warrior induced meltdown?
Don't they have a craptastic politically correct female pushing her social justice warriorism at the moment?
Till I hear otherwise, i'm going to regard any politically correct stuff coming from that direction as just propaganda.
...yet another very carefully framed study brought to you by the western word Feminist Union otherwise known as FU
I’ve never known a good code writer that was a woman. Not one.
Yeah, it may be hard wired into them. Which explains why we can't understand them. They don't know how to Chick'splain what they mean in normal English, they always seem to tiptoe around the subject, hoping we figure it out.
I been married 46 years, I'm still working on it, but there's no Rosetta Stone for this stuff.
day after day, I read that women are much better at everything.....are men permitted in this universe? or should we bail-out and head back to Mars!!
"If that's the case, sweetheart, I think we should COBOL!
All that means is that women have more time than men to play in the freeware sandbox.
