This is a misleading title that spins the truth into fodder for a flame war. The survey asks for teachers to explain the barriers that prevent various specific marginalized groups from engaging in CS. Almost everyone can agree that STEM needs more diversity (including the posts author!). Also, “all but” is misleading. The question[0] includes more groups than women and minorities. It also includes low income/English language learners. Additionally, I cannot (without potentially messing with their data) review the rest of the surveys questions. After clicking the link to the survey, I was redirected to twitter, than a survey page. This survey page required me to be an teacher. I am not a teacher. It also offered compensation (not a small amount). [0] https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52110633174_157b30cf32_b...

Not taking a position here, but the govt data (https://www.bls.gov/cps/cpsaat11.htm) clearly shows a 5:1 over-representation of Asians (and under-representation of Whites, but that's for another flame war) in software development, so you could steel-man that it would be hard to achieve equality of outcome for all the US-govt-defined races without doing something about that one major outlier.

Whether that's something we should strive for as a society I'll leave to people much wiser and uncancelable than me.
