This is super informative without being condescending, wonderful job

I hope you have a great day!

Interesting! Thank you for the insight, I’ve always loved the topic of direct translation vs contextual translation ever since I dove into it in a Contemporary Japanese Literature course in college

Would “just throw the whole thing away” (as in throw it into the trash) be a more fitting translation for the sentiment than “let it rot” then?

I’ve noticed that at some point since it came out, Horizon: Forbidden West actually added a thalassophobia relief option into the settings! It brightens everything underwater and allows for infinite breath underwater regardless of if you’ve unlocked it in the story or not

Aren’t Office Suite apps not even released for Linux? I feel like I remember having to use the web based apps, and not by choice

I doubt foreigners got here (likely on a work visa) with no skills or education. To get a work visa, don’t you have to have a job lined up? There’s their experience/skills. Myself and a lot of the class I graduated with in CS are getting hundreds of rejections despite having relevant education (and experience in many cases). With the hundreds of thousands laid off from tech in the last year there is absolutely not enough openings for everyone with skills and relevant education.

Yeah, the assumptions come from somewhere. From having men ogling at me since I began growing breasts. Women are constantly sexualized and I have 100% heard people say that they wouldn’t mind their company hiring more women because they like to look at them. I never even said that’s what you do, I said that’s what your wording made it sound like. So if anyone made assumptions here, it is you.

In regards to the tech interviews - I don’t see how you didn’t think about the possibility of both a woman and a man answering the question correctly. We then return to the problem of “similar candidates, who will get picked?” Which, in the past, would have always been the man. Assuming they even asked a woman in for an interview.

Asking white students to not take the resources that black students worked hard to provide for themselves after white students had the privilege of them all along? Yes. Yes it would be shitty of the white kids to show up and take those resources. Similar to how it’s shitty of men to take the resources that women worked to provide to other women in an attempt at making the industry more equal.

If companies were actually taking in 2 applicants instead of 1 and that in need of employees, I doubt we’d be seeing so many people desperate enough to find employment that they flood a job fair not intended for them.

So leave it to a marginalized group to help a more marginalized group? Why not shit on the ones at the top who aren’t helping anyone, rather than the group of women who managed to pull together resources over years to help a specific group? I agree there should be resources available for other marginalized groups too, but this reads like rich people pitting the poor against the middle class so they don’t realize who is actually taking almost everything for themselves.

Too often internal biases make men look like the “best candidate,” even if a man and woman of equal skills are presented.

And the reason people don’t like your “positive” reason for wanting more women in the office is because the way you worded it made you sound like a creep who just wants more women around to ogle at, rather than seeing them as equal.

An actual example would be segregation of schools by race. White students had the better schools and education. So when segregation became illegal, it would be like a period where black students organized their own resources for catching up, their own space and time, etc. Now imagine they had just enough books/teachers for engaging those students. And then white students showed up and began using the books, asking for their own tutoring from the teachers, etc - leaving less for the students who were at a disadvantage to begin with. Then the white kids start crying when they are told they aren’t welcome in this space dedicated to leveling the field of knowledge.

In summary: Jesus fucking christ a job fair is not like lynching, you fucking wacko.

No, it couldn’t. Because men excluding women from tech in the first place is wholly excluding them - there isn’t another tech industry they can participate in. Men are being excluded from a single event when there are many other events doing the SAME THING that they are encouraged to attend.

Not saying I agree one way or the other, but the argument you make about the logic is not sound.

Why exactly are you putting shoes into boots and not feet??

…country girls make do…
