    This is one of the best written summaries about discrimination that I have read.

    I will be sending this on to a number of friends both in and out of the industry.

    Edit: I am rather embarrassed to say that my comment was the first after over 50 minutes on HN. This a major issue for our industry. I remember when I went to college in the 1980's, the Computer Science programs had a very high female enrollment compared to many of the other math/science/engineering fields. It is very tragic that our industry has regressed in the numbers of women.

    Edit 2: Ah so it appears the original article was cross posted. I did search HN for other threads to the above link
