When reality is so sexist, that we need to blame AI for it, instead of admitting, some people's explanations of why there are huge gender gaps all over the place are rather wishful thinking.
Does he not even recognize that ideas and discoveries by women were almost unanimously dismissed and women even prohibited from participating in scientific fields or hell, any academic field until recently?
The only human to ever earn Nobels in 2 different fields is... a woman. And it happened more than a century ago, when, according to you, men were oppressing women left and right. (much earlier than that, science was moving at a very slow pace anyhow)
British mathematicians accepted Indian fellow into their ranks nearly 2 centuries ago, back when Indians were considered lesser beings.
The idea, that women dominate in biology, but are underrepresented in physics and math because biologist men are for some reason so much better than physicists or mathematicians is curious, but most likely false.
At best a lot of his 'evidence' pretty much comes down to 'it isn't sexism, women really are just worse, otherwise they would be doing better in physics because we only care about merit!'
No, although what you have stated is part of it. He shows that: 1) Women are less interested in STEM fields in general, while dominating in other fields (an academia in general) 2) Greater male variability is clear when looking at stats, it's more likely to see men at both ends of the spectrum. 3) Women are cited as often as men, at the beginning of their careers.
Overall, the fact that nobody ever shown that 4 to 1 disparities (English, Physics, except in case of English it's reverse) are really caused by oppression, this arguable idea is accepted as is, it's up to the rest of the world to disprove it.
Sometimes, the results of the "research" is pretty overwhelming, and quoting it at length over and over again for each layperson who stumbles by is not an effective use of time.
Yes, sometimes. Not this time though. None of the items listed by him in the presentation document (video is not available) are of "geocentrism" types. There is actual scientific research that he has linked. Perhaps that's why he was basically silenced, instead of being refuted (not really possible).
Oh, and that "by men" quote, is from the slide that states the following two sentences (in the linked google drive doc):
Physics invented and built by men, it's not by invitation. Curie etc. welcomed after showing what htey can do, got Nobels...
Note that this is against certain types of mosquitoes only. If I remember correctly, there are at least 300, and humans are after less than 10 o those.
Indeed, except sentences for rape are at about 60% to 80% of sentences for murders (varies across states), so, no, rape is a terrible example, unless you mean rape committed by women.
One should mention, it's not even remotely imaginable that a woman in similar setting would get prison sentence.
Oh. Some people don't share our "values." How awful.
I couldn't care less about US politics, I live in EU. What I saw was a major internet giant discussing plans on handling information streams... to "fix" things.
Surely, there is nothing to worry about, is there?
PS I read the memo. Very little in it was cherry picked. The point of it was "women are not interested in IT, if you want to increase their numbers, make it more interesting", hardly something controversial.
The main reason why his memo was at all, controversial, was going against mainstream "because harassment/male conspiracy".
I doubt it was "always like that". In fact, tuition fees drastically rose recently:
“According to the Department of Education data, administrative positions at colleges and universities grew by 60 percent between 1993 and 2009, which Bloomberg reported was 10 times the rate of growth of tenured faculty positions.
Even more strikingly, an analysis by a professor at California Polytechnic University, Pomona, found that, while the total number of full-time faculty members in the C.S.U. system grew from 11,614 to 12,019 between 1975 and 2008, the total number of administrators grew from 3,800 to 12,183 — a 221 percent increase.”
So Samsung has been making mobile phones for a while. What the hell does that have to do with anything? I remember the original Samsung smartphones. They were so similar to the 1-3G iPhones I inadvertently walked off with a Samsung phone a couple of times when I mistook one for my iPhone 3G.
Other women wanted tank top lady fired? Why didn't they all just dress comfortably and enjoy the loose discipline? Also, how can a US firm do business in Caracas without being sanctioned and/or expropriated? (!)
Asian americans, 6% of the population, are at 36% at Google.
Harvard faced the same "Asians have higher scores than any other race" problem, tried to address it with "personality" scores, got sued.
It is interesting to note that Asian-American SAT scores improved by 54 points since 2006, while for other races they dropped (for whites only modestly, by 6 points); source
This is your answer to "violence being exclusively male problem is a lie", seriously, that you are not afraid of women half your size? Most injured kids are injured by their mothers. Men are much less likely to start a fight with women than vice versa. Most fights ending up with women being injured by men, are started by women.
I grew in USSR and women were not half of the scientists. In math/physics fields they were in minority, somewhat less so in Chemistry. USSR's Academy of Science was nearly completely male.
There were plenty of female engineers (about 60% if I recall it right), but it was also because that profession was paid poorly. That's a completely different phenomena.

If you have SPECIFIC instances where A was promoted over B because A had a vagina and B had clearly better work, then let's talk.
He did exactly that, slide 15.
. However, acting like an ass and flinging shit at a conference like this...
He was SPECIFICALLY invited to talk about gender and discrimination. People who wanted to hear traditional narrative, should have warned him.
Without trying to defend this guy who, apparently, chose a quite bad place to talk about all this...
He was literally asked to talk about all this.
They simply didn't like what he had to say.
Does he not even recognize that ideas and discoveries by women were almost unanimously dismissed and women even prohibited from participating in scientific fields or hell, any academic field until recently?

Evidence huh? Did you actually read his presentation
Yes.
I guess had he been easy to disprove, it would have been done.
Instead, he is silenced.

But all female boards are fine.
It is 2018., when on Planet Earth we call it "equality".

Care to name one of the other cases?

Men seem to be particularly talented at facing ridiculous prison sentences for minor bullshit..

Wow.

the problem. College was _always_ this expensive. We haven't done anything radical to colleges.

He could have learned things, and been set up the second time, unless I'm misreading the article.
Good job justifying rape, stranger.
So how many interruptions did we have per game? LESS THAN ONE on average? And that "ruined" something for someone? I'm impressed.
Tone down the nonsense, please. WC was fun to watch and video referee's added a lot of fairness to the process.
This hits SPECIFICALLY INTEL CPUs yet is presented as "AMD too".

Mean Girls: Provocative Clothing Leads to Intra-Sexual Competition between Females
Intel suffered major blows, just check on youtube reviewers reaction to their "counter to ThreadRipper 2".
This is merely an excuse,not the reason.

Male victims of domestic violence have higher chances to get arrested themselves, than the perpetrator.
That's a very different perspective indeed. Wiki has good summary on the subject.

But good job twisting "oppression" in. Perhaps you could explain us this graph:

Presumably there will also be a review to determine what went wrong and to prevent it happening again.
What is the point of pushing the narrative that is demonstrably false? Jesus:
The woman who made false rape allegations against a Texas DPS trooper will not face any additional charges.
