I think I get it now!<p>How to be female and get a job in CS<p>---------------------------------------<p>1. Be a female in the US. Instead of being part of the 18% of women who are studying CS, deliberately choose a major other than CS.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;readwrite.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;09&#x2F;02&#x2F;women-in-computer-science-why-so-few" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;readwrite.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;09&#x2F;02&#x2F;women-in-computer-science-wh...</a><p>2. Spend time protesting large tech companies for not hiring enough women. When asked why there should be more women in tech despite hiring ratios exceeding percentage of female CS majors, place hands over ears.<p>3. Receive free tuition to sub-par accelerator schools that will take your money but will not teach you any of the actual skills required to pass an interview, let alone compete with your male or female counterparts at work who studied CS for 4 years.<p>4. Demand and obtain job at large corporation you previously protested. Post on twitter about breaking the barrier, offering yourself plenty of self-congratulatory banter. Add the word &quot;geek&quot; to all social media bios.<p>5. Carry on with your career. Ignore all of the other thousands of hardworking, deserved women in tech who studied CS and succeeded despite astronomical odds, like your counterparts from China and India who had none of the privileges you did. Join them at the water cooler and attempt to socialize with them, ignoring the fact that all of the men and women you work with secretly resent you and see you as incompetent.<p>6. If anyone questions your abilities, play gender bias card. Place hands over ears, when necessary.<p>This is all so much easier than just choosing to study CS.<p>How to be a good male in tech<p>-----------------------------<p>1. Don&#x27;t question any of this. Just blindly accept your company hiring sub-par devs from accelerators, despite the way they threaten the integrity and stability of your company. Diversity is more important than competence. Ask any business owner.
