Where the ladies at? →

langer:

For a brief moment there from about 5pm on Sunday until 10am Monday morning it looked like our entire week would be consumed by chatter about Doree’s tech startup cover story—then Gizmodo disassembled an iPhone and the internet found something else to freak out about (a windfall for me, frankly, because the fewer people who read Zach Klein’s quote about how “the skill set required to build web technology is no longer an elitist skill” the better it is for my career [thx Zach/h8 u/thought we were friends]).

…Even though I unconditionally love every guy I’ve ever worked with, startup life means spending twelve hours a day around the same people, day in, day out—and to put it simply nobody needs that much bro in their life. So please, ladies, listen to Elizabeth. We need you.

I would like to point out, female computer programmers make ~93% of their male peers’ salaries, among the smallest gaps. So, ladies: careers@hotpotato.com.
