    – even if they have the same formal qualification, which in itself is the exception. It’s mostly men who study serious technical stuff.

    Put some tech guys together in their break, and they will talk tech. Quite often about private technical side-projects. “Hm, I’m tackling that problem.” “Oh yeah, I had that in one of my previous projects, and it turned out that it works best if you do it so-and-so.” “Great, tell me more!” “Yeah, … (lengthy tech stuff)”.

    Women don’t talk tech in their leisure time. That’s why the nerds don’t hang around with women, their talk is boring to nerds. And that’s why women don’t catch that knowledge. It’s obvious that this will put them at a disadvantage in direct competition.

    I had that at work some time ago. An expensive prototype, and I was supposed to check whether it would work. They gave me the cable harness for a developer interface (nothing you’d see in consumer devices). I just looked at the cables and refused to plug them in since I had something like that at home – but my wiring looked totally different, AND it worked. So I gave that back to the assembly line, “check the wiring, it is not what I’m seeing at home in my own projects”.

    Indeed, they had mis-wired it. Putting voltage where no voltage is supposed to be might have damaged the prototype, which in itself would have been costly. Even worse, it would have meant project delay.

    A woman in the domain would have understood that the wiring was wrong – AFTER plugging it in. The reason why I saw that beforehand was that if I screw up something in my private projects, there is no “other department” to repair that thing. I have to do it myself. That teaches you to look closely. If you don’t have private tech projects, then you will not learn this way.

    If a woman with 5 years of experience in tech jobs competes against a man of the same age who has private tech projects, his experience is equivalent to at least 10 of her years, if not 15 (because doing stuff with few resources means doing it efficiently). Obviously, she will loose the contest – and whine about “patriarchy”.

    Are they failing? Are men being hired instead of females?

    Or has the bar been lowered so females can “succeed “?

    formal qualification

    In terms of college degrees, they hardly mean what they used to. Lowered standards to get into college on top of lowered standards to earn a degree. There are so many out there now it doesn’t prove much. . .at least not what they used to.

    Wish I knew that when I decided to go that’s for damn sure.

    To clarify I am referring to the lower end degrees, like associates and even bachelors. They do have value if you pick the right STEM field. And masters/doctorates certainly have value in a STEM field.

    Either way though a fancy piece of paper doesn’t prove you knowledge and wisdom.

    There are more S and M of STEM than there are jobs for.

    Gender has nothing to do with it.

    I can confirm. We talk about our bike, electric guitar, and computer side projects, and a lot more. Sometimes about cars, or science.

    Women don’t talk tech in their leisure time.

    They always talk about socializing. Family stuff, friends, parties, who did what to whom, children stuff, marriage, cooking, and all the boring topics.

    Yes, cooking can be also a boring topic, except something blows up or burns down to smoke or runs out of he pot. I laugh at my own kitchen failures a lot 🙂

    their talk is boring to nerds.

    yes it is.

    Well not where I’m working. The problem is that either you get products that actually work, or hell breaks loose. Customers refuse to pay, or they reduce the price. Either way, the company’s profit goes down. Other companies that get it right will take over.

    You see, at the end of job interviews, I’m asking seemingly irrelevant questions. Like, are coffee and soft drinks for free. What flight class do tech people travel, economy or what. The idea is, if a company treats people like s~~~, they will not attract the top level guys who have the choice. Their whole staff will be sub-class, and too many women in their tech departments are already an alert in itself. I avoid these companies, mostly because the actual jobs suck there, and the reason is that their whole tech base sucks, too. Because sub-class employees make sub-class s~~~ that I don’t want to deal with.

    I still remember one of my first interviews after my studies where the boss said something like “the code in itself IS the documentation”, and I asked back whether they had any plans to go professional. Things quickly went downhill then, but I wouldn’t have wanted to work for a crap company like this anyway, so I was fine.

    The cool thing with private tech projects is, you can reference them in the application, and possibly even bring them in to an interview. Interview staff loves stories, and a hand-on thing to actually show off trumps women’s babble, at least in tech. And then they wonder why. 🙂

    Women suck at tech and STEM fields because they’re stupid. They’re emotional rather than logical. They do the job for the money, and not for the enjoyment of it. Sure, there are exceptions. But they’re few and far between. And when you meet a woman like that, she’s more like a man than a woman. Doesn’t have or want kids, isn’t interested in relations~~~s, and is in full blown monk mode 24/7. These women are EXTREMELY RARE, and comprise like 0.00001% of the population. These are the only women that are tolerable to me, but I still avoid them because the cards are stacked against me. I don’t want any false rape accusations or other BS in my life.

    That’s basically the difference between men and women in general.

    Their utter lack of commitment and outside study. Is evident from their inability to invent or create new things.

    A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!

    “the code in itself IS the documentation”

    And when I could not understand some of my old code what I wrote 5 years ago, I realized the importance of writing documentation EVEN IF it is written as a “self-documenting little easy to read” piece of code.
