Google's new attempt at stopping "loveism" activities. This time its code.

How are snow-cones made of DNA?

Because women empowerment.

Wow do we must've went to the same one, cause we had the same thing and everyone did the same thing.

It was probably a nationwide thing. They made us do videos on why we weren't handicaps the next year. For example "Hello my name is (insert name) and I'm not a handicap, I'm an artist."

"The world is made with DNA, pulled together into tigers, cathedrals, and snow-cones."

Who loving wrote this. Why does this have anything to do with women or computer science?

Woman use to get jobs just for being woman. But eventually they took offense because they started to believe they had more value then being a gender.

Now woman can get any job just as a man does. Education and experience.
But that's to hard because men are hard to compete against.  So they demanded help to get hired and the fed threatened everyone in the country to hire all types of people regardless of how stuffty they are for the job.

Now woman complain that chivalry is dead. Even though by definition that's what they were burning their bras to accomplish. They just wanna be special for no reason again. It was more fun.

Now companies pretend to be liberal to appease stockholders. Google could give two forgets about woman. Because in a decade they will just change their mind again anyway.

You guys are missing the point. Women are vastly underrepresented in the sciences, and probably even less so in computer science. Most men who are interested in the sciences or programming or engineering are able to go into it without it being weird or unusual, but that's not necessarily the same thing for women. There is probably a workforce of literally thousands of women who would like to do science related jobs but aren't really given enough attention or opportunities because the general consensus is that women are less interested or less talented at STEM careers.

I guess my point is that men don't really need Google to make a campaign to get them hyped for STEM careers because they're already given more opportunities to pursue a STEM career than women are.

I wouldn't really equate this to #BanBossy because #BanBossy is just trying to solve something that most people would agree is a complete non-issue. But getting more women to go into more STEM-related careers would make the internet/technology/medicine/whatever that much better, and I don't think that's something worth complaining about.

This is absolutely correct. Women are an extreme minority in STEM, especially in computer science. (I believe they're less than 10% of Computer Science workers) Google is simply trying to get young girls excited about what they can do by learning how to program to help closer this gender disparity.

Last time I got put on a programming project with a female coder I started freaking out and the project ended up dying because I thought she was gonna change everything and remove my loveist/tribal/awesome comments and refused to let her change anything :(

I still want to know how cathedrals and snow cones have anything to do with dna.

so when did google hire all of the feminists into their company?

[ResonKinetic]

What if all their google apps start giving perks to women
