Every week someone talks about the same thing. I get it but at this point this topic is passing the point of caring into annoyance and soon apathy. It honestly has crossed my mind to just make a quick script to filter anything that has to do with women/minorities/politics even though it's the equivalent of covering my ears and closing my eyes. Articles based on these things have nothing to do scientific progress and quirky/interesting technical concepts which are the main draw for coming here.

Maybe I'll be enlightened? I don't know. Being completely honest I'm having a hard time getting past fact that the article was written by a woman who could instead get a tech job. My wife is a kernel programmer for goodness' sake. Perhaps I'm failing to see something obvious so it would be nice if someone could show me what's wrong with my line of thinking.
