Ah yes - The vaunted techno-twofers!

I have no gripes about women or minorities in the high-tech fields - provided they compete with white guys like me on the basis of their talent, and not on their gender/skin color.

If they are better than me - I’d best catch the heck up.

If they are not better, they should be doing the catch-up work.

How intolerant of you. /s

Most large companies have quotas for anyone non-white and non-male. HR will go to hiring managers and tell them to focus on ‘minority’ candidates. Being a white male does not look good on the resume.
