    It’s really cute how you cite a suit that never went anywhere, and then fail to acknowledge, either through ignorance, or in your case just sheer stupidity, the more likely reason for that particular strategy for hiring…

    It’s because they want to pay them less. Because they still favor white people. And that was actually proven in court.

      That suit was moved to private arbitration proceeding and settled out of court.

      And I joked about hiring women to pay them more in my other comment. It’s a joke because that implies that tech companies, publicly disclosing their desperation to hire women, are actually losing hundreds of millions (collectively billions), just to avoid hiring women. I’ve never met anyone working on tech that hates women that much. It’s one of the most liberal fields out there. They bend over backwards to be diverse. It’s a struggle because asians are overwhelmingly dominating in terms of qualification.
