On a side note - anyone have advice for social engineering young girls to become STEMs? Just found out I have a daughter on the way

Congratulations man. First kid?

Yeah - first of two (hopefully).

Daughters are for your wife. (You'll find out.)

Yeah - wife repeatedly said she wanted a girl.

Forcing gender neutrality is far worse than giving options that encourage girls to build something while still being girly

You extrapolated a whole lot from my one sentence. I have no issue with a girl wanting pink legos; I'm just grateful they weren't around when I was a kid.

I'm a pro at extrapolation

You’ve been told this already, but your life is no longer your own. Use the pregnancy as a chance to enjoy your freedom a few more times. Take a trip, finish your hobby project, or house upgrade.

You’re expected to “enjoy” the first year, but you will want to explode. The fun shit starts after that. The first time she looks at you and says “dada”, you’re in heaven.

Expect your psychic armor to be partially destroyed. You’ll never be able to watch a kid suffer on tv again. Your sense of righteous anger will become mighty. Use your fears as motivation.

Enjoy the ride, my friend. And take pictures. There is nothing else like it.

Googles STEM Women.....tons of chemists....why does Chemistry appeal to chicks more than Computer Science?

Chemists chicks way better looking than Comp Sci chicks...on average....

CS involves logic, something most women aren't good at.

Chemistry involves bonding (lol, "covalent bonds") which is something they relate more to.
Just like they try to hook up their friends in relationships, they want to hook up those atoms/molecules together.

More affirmative action in chemistry. Computer science is still dominated by tech industries. They want results. Women don't by and large deliver. Female software engineers tend to be a net loss for companies.

This is why we divided up management (basically duplicated it) to have engineering/project managers and department managers. Then we beefed up the HR department. We shuffle women into the department management track, or we move them over into HR.

It's just a giant black hole for capital, really.

Congrats, you’re about to go through some changes.
Welcome to the real grown up club.
