The simple math I cited is not enough? You agree that women make up less than half the tech workforce even though they're half of working adults, right?

Why is it important to know how tech ranks against other industries anyway? How is that actionable information? Is the point to be able to claim "it's not our problem"? I don't think that's a useful line of thought. Even if tech were above average (and, again, it isn't) that doesn't in any way excuse the behavior in the NYT article.

Why did you say tech is worse than other industries and what industries are you talking about?

If you don't think a comparison to other industries is important, why did you bring it up to begin with?
