        Would it have been acceptable for him to say white men are better suited as programmers than blacks? That would've been discriminatory also!

        Well, maybe because conveniently forgot the fact that majority of the first programmers were women. Suggesting that women are in fact better

        Who made the decision to talk about NOW? Did men and women just NOW come into existence? You like facts so much why limit it to a period?

        So is the HBO show Silicon Valley being discriminitory? It portrays nearly all men in tech industry. Or is this just the reality?

        I think its just a show. It's tv. I am sure there are some amazing women in tech industry, working silently, as men stress about power.

        There is no problem with voicing your opinion. We also think about the effect of your opinion (voiced or not) in the company with due time.

        So maybe wait for someone who's working directly with him to voice that they were treated in some negative way.
