As a woman entering the software industry, I wish I could tell you it's female friendly.
It is not. More so than before, but...
I would suggest to any young woman entering it to keep calm and carry on. Do not listen to them. Just continue to carry on your work. Maintain composure.
@thor It's an industry where men get to be passive aggressive, aggressive and hide behind security when they go too far. I showed a small group how easy it was to track people and probably said some things about how it might already be in place.
The response was to protect the women from knowledge and throw me under the bus. It all mostly went away when I was approached and essentially told to not talk about such things. There's a point where accusations are too severe to not look into. It was manipulation and it was intense for a while. It drew the attention of someone higher up and they put a pin in it, personally.
It seems to be an environment that crushes anyone who doesn't go along with the rest. Psychological manipulation is used to try and break people. Don't underestimate anyone. Don't underestimate what level of deception is being used. Just be sharp and remember that silence is a virtue, use it for your own protection.
Never say anything that isn't rehearsed to HR. Don't be afraid to violate rules when it comes to recording private conversations, just never get caught. Remember the noises generated by equipment.
So that's what I have to say about employment in tech. It does make some people seem to go off the deep end. This is already too long, legality and morality are fun related areas.

To any woman or girl who wants to have a career in computers: Logic gates do not care if your genitals point in our out. Some of the people you encounter along the way might, but as for the discipline itself, it is open to anyone with a brain.
@thor Also learn hardware debugging, some assembly, tools of the trade as well as Verilog. They will be useful skills.
@thor Women have a long history with computers.

Most of my talents are of the sort where they're only reliable for my own enjoyment. The moment they get milked, I start hating them. The only situation in which I could make a lot of money on my talents is if I'm the boss of the company and I determine the vision.
@Draven I took pictures but didn't damage the sensor in a noticeable way.

I saw the eclipse in OR last time on a private mountain with custom optics… Today I’m just making tea.
@thendrix For the one that occurred almost 7 years ago, I was walking around in awe of what I saw. I also didn't understand the importance of shooting in RAW.
Today I took my meds for a stomach ulcer and took a few photos before and during the peak. The sensor did surprisingly well.
Now I want to look more into how the light made the effects on the CMOS that I saw.
You sounded so civilized and cultured. It might be something to look out for before you start using only iron sights and embracing the steel butt plate as the true faith.

SF signed up for this… Can’t wait to see what disease they test this time. Hope you get the reference.

@freemo Homosexual men seem to be well-spoken but the level of skill is very impressive. I believe homosexual men tend to be more intelligent than their heterosexual counterparts.
I can't describe it.
