I don't know it's a matter of men and women being "wired differently" or not, what I'm implying is that seriously, this site, while tasteless and of questionable educational quality, is really no more sexist than your average TV commercial, shopping mall or bar. Not everything with boobs is sexist, ffs.
It's not, but should we also not protest those as well? Do we not teach children wrong by showing we are displeased? That silence means their actions are acceptable. Perhaps not reward-worthy, but acceptable. Thus are you saying that the behaviors shown on TV, shopping malls, bars, that is how you want you, your friends, your children to be treated?

#62Please note, I am posting this with despair - it's little surprise that women are under-represented in our industry if this kind of thing can stand.
100% agree. This is offensive and sexist. I'm a man and I'm offended, and can only imagine how women must find it.

I suspect all the quizzes are jokes or proof-of-concept placeholders.

#65The first CSS video says "the property and value are separated by a colon (which she pronounces "colin") as the head of some guy shows up in that position, then the narrator says "no, not that Colin". I don't recognize the guy, but I'm really bad at recognizing celebrities. Who is that face, and is he somebody who would be well-recognized in the UK?

The problem for me is that my wife is constantly trying to get into programming. The industry is already gender-biased enough. If she thinks that this is the kind of thing that programmers want - she's going to be turned off from continuing down that path.
Mine complained they don't have a version with male hotties, too. FML.
