There is so much talk in the tech world about equality in the work force, yet, all too often, you hear lines like "separating the wheat from the chaff" regarding job applicants. Is there maybe a more respectful way to speak about people who are less talented than others?

I think most of the talk is about increasing the number of women and non-Asian nonwhites. I’ve heard very little talk about being more respectful of people’s humanity (whether applicants, employees, or the general public).
