In his tweet from 3:34pm on Nov 7 that started a huge bitchfest.

And wow I read the rest of it. Woman this women that.. and yet no idea where he’s getting any evidence this issue has to do with gender.

I mean maybe they made an unfair calculation for her, why is it all of a sudden clearly a case of gender discrimination.

Either he’s having a tantrum or trying to virtue signal for some unknown reason very hard.

I thought DHH was in Chicago, not New York? (Though Illinois is also not a community property state, so there's that.)

That aside, his evidence is limited because Apple and GS both refuse to share the rationale behind their credit decisions. It's an algorithm. So he's basing it on what he does know.

He said that they live in a community property state. (I have no idea where he lives.)
