It's not as bad as I thought after reading it,

It seemed like it was more against female engineers in the workplace.
He seems to have a bigger issue with that. I thought it was more going to be more about race.

He seems to have a big issue with feminism.

It was more about women because of their employee population, there are more women than other minority groups

This sounds good in theory but in IP, you need a lot of LIQUID capitol or AIs. These are usually out of reach for 99.9% of Black techies. Black people outside of the industry underestimate the cost that goes into this. This isn't as simple as a website and selling bullshyt on shopify.

Sorry, brother that just isn't true. If you were talking 30 or 40 years ago maybe. Now on the front end or the back end support for a business is dirt cheap. The ability to compete with massive companies has never been better. There is a cost but it pales in comparison to what the cost used to be. The only impediment to small businesses are these laws they keep on making to stump the growth of small businesses at least in America.
edit: I know this cause I have started bare bones companies that are under the umbrella that employs quite a few people.

The barrier of entry may be lower in comparison to years past but if you don't have your money right, your odds of competing at a high level aren't all that good

Just read the comments on any article about diversity in tech on any tech site and you'll find the sentiments from this manifesto aren't uncommon amongst Silicon Valley employees :mjpls:

Trust and believe that the author of the manifesto and their fellow travelers have similar sentiments when it comes to diversity of race in tech. Between plain old white racism and the underlying libertarian streak of Silicon Valley, this manifesto is hardly surprising :mjpls:

Gotta respectfully disagree breh, who says you got to compete at the highest level to start or even if that is the end goal. Don't have to be a billion dollar business 500k business is good enough. Now if you said not everyone isn't made to be an entrepreneur yeah that is an accurate statement. But now there is no better time to carve out a niche, create a unique user experience and give it a good. No better time to compete! The barrier is lower which means a higher success rate and a higher survivability rate.

If you are a cac male



It's so funny that white males have enjoyed every privilege imaginable for the last 1000 years but the moment we try to shift the culture to a society based on justice and fairness they lose their minds.

last 1000 years :dahell:

You give them far too much credit. 400yrs tops
