what do you mean already segregationalist? People were hired for their skills. Now they want to hire for gender. We got segregationalist now.

something needs doing

I'm doing something

something has been done.

full disclosure: I have no skin in this game, nor opinions. Just making an observation.

> Let's hear your proposal for addressing the already segregationist technology industry.

Stop supporting segregationist policies.

Isn't a conference for just Pythonistas considered segregation?

Definition of segregation for your convenience:

the action or state of setting someone or something apart from other people or things or being set apart

Indeed, a broad definition of the word would include this. I meant to imply that I was talking about segregation of groups which are often considered in genuine social conflict with one another, like gender, ethnicity, sexuality, religion, rich/poor, etc. Sure, there are "holy wars" between groups like Pythonistas and Rubyists, but I think most people agree that this doesn't reflect genuine social struggle.
