I also found it to be a somewhat shortsighted analysis. Conventional opinion amongst U.S. elite is that it's a very bad thing when one group controls the means of production which is primarily utilized by another group (whether the grouping be along racial/gender/class/other lines). But here it's celebrated. I guess because it's an economic argument for getting more women into tech.

But we already "know" that men who go into tech are not representative of the general male population - why would women be any different?
