>As a population, women ARE worse than men at tech jobs. ... They know they’re inferior and I think this leads to the kind of bitterness these Google employees engage in.

You’ve correctly called out the aggregate, but I don’t hire aggregates, I hire people. If the best person happens to be female, the average (or median) of all the people who didn’t apply or aren’t being considered doesn’t matter.

The converse is, of course, even sillier.

That’s what James wrote; yes, aggregates exist, and they matter, but don’t judge people by the ‘tribe’ (his word) to which they belong. In PC-land, even noticing this fact is taboo.

Yes there are outliers in any population but an environment where those outliers are more coveted than than the rest of the cohort (upper end of the bell curve) produces a reality where those individuals become very difficult to come by for employment.
My point is that it's leftist thinking, to misstate the characteristics of the populations involved . Strictly on merit there is going to be a much larger population of capable men for these jobs than women and that's the result of differing biology.
