It's not a state secret that a lot of SV tech companies, especially those with high visibility or certain social liabilities, do wink-nod "pro-diversity" hiring cycles. You just don't get to talk about it from within the ecosystempic.twitter.com/k4C41xH2f6

I love the implication that any company's PR layer might actually say, "Oh yep, that's actually right, for optics reasons we're much less interested in candidates of this sex and skin color."
