The post is mine. Didn't know it was posted here by my friend. Thanks to him, real hackers who care about the trade are already mailing me about the engineering part of that post. Both men and women. The following part of the comment is for the sensitive rest.

Hey guys,

(I hope, in modern urban culture, 'guys' is a sexually neutral term; Else, I will have to address the some of the sensitive readers as Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms ...; Let me know)

Sincere apologies are in order:

* To all men and some women whom my post offended because I didn't mention their favourite starlet

* To all women and some men whom my post offended because I didn't mention Brad Pitt and David Hasselhoff

* And to all others who are not Scott Adams' readers

Some of the best computer science engineers I have worked with are women. And I don't hire based on the brand of their nail polish.

You are welcome. The pleasure is mine.
