Yeah, but your code will be culturally one-sided! You need diverse coding practices, like three-space indentation!
My favorite was companies like IBM setting a goal for 50% female engineering representation even though barely 20% of the respective college grads were female. Like, they're just blatantly picking from a smaller pool, making it statistically inevitable that they're bypassing more qualified people.
But people here evidently support this sort of gender/race based discrimination. 🤷
This is where everyone here is being disingenuous, or are just completely ignoring opponents of DEI. When have opponents of DEI called for overlooking meritorious minorities? When have they called for discrimination? Because they must have explicitly done so if DEI combats this.
I know what the stated goals of DEI are, and it sounds good, but I also know how it's often implemented: quantitative goals and affirmative action. These are discriminatory practices.
People routinely admit that white women are the biggest beneficiaries of DEI, calculated from things such as their access to STEM jobs (eg. IBM setting a goal of 50% female engineers), then they go right back to saying that hiring based on gender is actually not DEI. Pure gaslighting.
