A major bank had a bug in their system that triggered multiple postings of transactions in all of their clients' accounts. When they found out the root cause, they just had to mention that the programmer was a female. Like that was any bearing to the problem. It's not like they have like a whole fucking team of QA testers that should have checked that shit before it went to production.

    I see your point, but at the same time, if it were something positive and they didn't mention it was a female, chances are you'd be upset.

    Personally, I think race and gender are fucking irrelevant to what someone accomplishes, but it's all about publicity at this point.

    If they used a pronoun who cares, if they went out of their way and used, 'woman' or 'female' or 'lady' etc then I see your point

    Would be interested to see the public statement when I googled it just gave some news stories about a woman who was robbing banks.

    If it were very specific like "a woman did this" then yeah, but if it were just in passing by using "she", "her" etc. there's no problem!

    Seriously people? In no way is this okay, and there is no way they would've explicitly said "male programmer" had it been a male. This is blatantly obvious sexism, don't try to minify it or reduce the severity of it, be upset and angry instead.

    Sorry but I think the first part of your reply is nonsense. Like, you have less than 0 clues/"proofs" in support of that statement.

    About the second part, if that's what you think then I think the only possibile reaction to this rant is "Man, this is sick".

    @Gilpow It's not the only reaction. I'm sick and tired of everyone emphasizing gender and race (especially when they bitch because it's not mentioned on something good, then bitch when it is mentioned on something bad). Everyone is all about equality and unity, but bitch when it's not the equality or unity they want. People are natural hypocrites, and it's fucking annoying as hell.

    @jhh2450 So by saying "chances are you'd be upset" you implied "chances are you're an hypocrite"... without a single clue about that, for that person. K.

    @jhh2450 So you actually meant 100% of people, not "the majority of people". That's...funny but ok LOL Have a nice day.
