    Did you comment on the right article? This seems to have nothing to do with whether the Bloomberg study article is correct or not.

    At this moment in time I think companies can gain a major hiring advantage by simply hiring the best regardless of race/gender. So many large companies are shooting themselves in t…

    I can't tell if this is sarcasm. Social change can take centuries and I'd argue this trend is moving in the other direction.

    Why's everybody got to be such critics? Like yeah, of course they are pricing it so some users subsidize the cost for other users. That's not some new or crazy concept.
