He referenced some studies in his original memo that you're free to read, but here was a response that cites some sources from Inc.com.
The fact is there MAY be some biological differences, we don't know for sure, the jury is still out (in my opinion). Unfortunately it's just an inflammatory topic and people are so upset by it they refuse to discuss it.
Actually, it's an automatic hostile workplace lawsuit for any woman who has to work with him. How do you keep an employee who says that 25 or 30% of the workforce is unqualified to be at the company, without any evidence other than personal opinion?
You might want to actually read the paper because he never said that. Seriously, actually go read it before you form an opinion because you obviously haven't.
Bullshit. He was fired because he asserted women were less capable of being engineers. It was a gender stereotype that called out Google's female employees as somehow being lesser in a particular set of fields. In my organization, he'd have been given his walking papers as well.
Well, really he said women were less likely on average to be engineers, which isn't without merit. The conclusion being that trying to strive for an arbitrary 50/50 ratio of women to men didn't make sense. I've been digging around all over the internet and I can't find anyone who has posted a good rebuttal to his points. If you find something, I'd like to read it if you don't mind sharing.
PCI passthrough of a GTX 1070 card to one of the Windows VMs (gaming actually works well),
I'm currently building a Ryzen linux box (parts are literally sitting on the desk beside me) and I've been following the PCIe pass-through intermittently, mostly Wendell and Level1Techs. Can you share some details on how you got everything working and issues you've run in to?
I wish Linus would come out publicly and say "I wouldn't do business with them if I were you because I'm going to find a way to modify the kernel to break their business" even if it's impossible and he has no plans to do that. Just to scare off customers.
That's a pretty poor attempt to deflect from a simple fact that you cannot refute. Only half the people believed systemd was the best option. Deal with it.
I use Chrome (and Chromium) because, for me, the performance is better than Firefox. I regularly try Firefox when I hear about improvements, and I will continue to do so, but so far I eventually end up back at Chrome. It's just so much faster for me. Also Chrome's automatic search-in-site feature (type "amazon", hit tab, search for a string and you search using Amazon's site search) is fantastic. Firefox has keyword searches (right click on a search box to see the option) but it requires manual setup which is kind of annoying. But I'll gladly give it up if Firefox performance is relatively close to Chrome. I would LOVE to switch back,. It's been years since I regularly used Firefox.
But seriously, we have no idea what the upper limit of bitcoin is. Some people laughed at suggestions it would be worth $1, and now it's worth nearly $3,000.
I completely understand that the goal is to reach a consensus which means you might not get your first choice. My point is just that only half of the group chose systemd as their first choice. Four people got their first choice and four people did not get their first choice.
I guess my point is only half of the group believe systemd to be the best choice. The point of the voting system is to come to some kind of consensus, which I understand.

He knows exactly why he was fired. He's speaking publicly for one reason: to ensure a huge settlement from Google.
How much does Putin pay you for these posts, Boris?
That's really encouraging, thanks again.

There are many limits to At Will employment terminations (e.g., retaliation, discrimination, internal company policies, etc.).
I think that's being exceedingly generous. It may sound 'sciencey', but certainly he does not have study data to back him up.
Are you about that?
Agreed. This guy is either going to get a payout or Google is looking at a protracted lawsuit. There is ZERO chance this goes to court.

women are not biologically fit to be engineers then covers his ass with "oh but some overlap". Give me a break.
He never said that. He talked about interests, on average. Nowhere did he say women aren't "fit to be engineers" that's a flat out lie.
What were the "liberal" countries in the middle ages that encouraged women to read?
Bullshit. He was fired because he asserted women were less capable of being engineers. It was a gender stereotype that called out Google's female employees as somehow being lesser in a particular set of fields. In my organization, he'd have been given his walking papers as well.

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it. Have you had good luck with it?

If you're too simple to understand why that matters, there's no use arguing with you.
That's a pretty poor attempt to deflect from a simple fact that you cannot refute. Only half the people believed systemd was the best option. Deal with it.
I cannot figure out how you still don't understand this. My only guess is willful ignorance at this point.
Only four people's first choice was systemd. That is a simple fact.

I'm not how else I can tell you that I understand it's not relevant to the outcome. What it illustrates is individuals preferences.
Welcome to the club.
John McAfee would disagree with you. Don't miss his insane twitter rant about it either.

It's entirely possible. Is the order of their vote not their order of preference?
