Re:U.S. sues Oracle, alleges salary and hiring discrimination by explainthisth on Wednesday January 18, 2017 @08:46PM (#13432272)
The evidence "group A was hired more than than group B, and the effect was statistically significant" doesn't imply we should find a significant effect when comparing any other set of groups A, B, ~A, C, C^B, etc.

It's generally hard to prove things with statistics without a randomized experiment.
