    It's really odd that this is making the media rounds now, granted this is the most fair headline I've seen on it to date. The fact that Focals v2 were being cancelled, and that all…

    That's literally the point. Because of reactions like yours (specifically that last line re-paraphrasing), anyone on the conservative spectrum is now afraid to express their opinio…

    It's a little bit different if your job is to design and build a product intended to be arbiters of free speech, and the govt is pressuring your industry and company specifically t…

    You are right, however that is a systemic bias in equal opportunity – not representation. Foot in the door is a huge step, and it's totally okay for companies to push initiatives t…

    They do this already at a fairly large scale, for example the BOLD internship and development program where the goal is to "expose historically underrepresented students in this fi…

    Yes and no – Google is (used to be, at least) particularly stringent about requiring a degree moreso than other tech co's

    I was being a bit of a devil's advocate, altho didn't quite get the responses I hoped for. I suppose I didn't phrase it quite right since I don't have significant knowledge about t…
