Comment on Ask HN: Why is Facebook not having a harder time hiring?parent

What I'm meaning to say is that despite your desire to move the goalpost of the argument in order not to seem wrong, the term 'techbro' pretty exclusively brings to mind a negative male stereotype for most people.

Your post would have been better phrased using the term "software engineer's", which would have gotten the same point across whilst being gender neutral, neither reinforcing said negative male stereotype nor erasing female engineers in the culpability of said belief that "technology can solve everything."
