Did u read the memo?
-
Yes and it was drivel. "Women are biologically uninterested in challenging work." This makes sense to conservatives apparently..
-
Why is that a reason for firing someone. Is that our solution as a society when we don't like something? Destroy someone's livelihood?
-
He's a liability for a company already under investigation for gender bias in hiring. They'd be morons NOT to fire him.
-
Maybe one day Google will invent a way to scan our brains for impure thoughts, and a way to replace them with the correct ones.
-
Continue to cape for a dumbass who lost his job bc he was too stupid to keep his bad opinions to himself.
-
UR advocating 4 corporations to be arbiters of our thoughts. Maybe firing didn't go far enough. Maybe he should also be jailed? Tortured?

"Google fired an engineer after he revealed a deep lack of basic scientific understanding or fundamental research ability."
-
Then how did they hire him?
-
Coding-only interviews that don't measure any real depth of thought.
-
For that matter, they don't even measure the ability to create good code. They measure puzzles under time pressure.

As a female who that worked in SilVal 40 yrs ago w/o discrimination, glad he was fired.People should be hired on merit/skills not gender
-
Why are you glad someone was fired? Why would you be happy over someone else's misfortune? Says a lot about you, doesn't it?

Was that too harsh, Google? I'm a teacher and that was a golden opportunity called a 'teachable moment'. Forgiveness is also an option.
-
Forgiveness and teachability are only options if the author believes he made a mistake and wants to learn. His attitude suggests otherwise.

So you know him personally?

So freedom of speech but not freedom of being conservative? Interesting.
-
Freedom of speech from the government is the only constitutionally protected speech. Protection from consequences is not a right.
-
No this was HR drawing a line when employee wrote a memo using company media that could get the company sued. And in California!
