> Do you believe that hiring currently excludes those races and sexes?

Good lord yes. In software engineering almost everyone is a white male.

Absolutely and unequivocally false. Unless you are casting Asian and Indian as white.

That’s fair—I’m closer to the east coast, so around me it is mostly white dudes, but that might not be true elsewhere. But it is mostly men, at any rate.

		The question was if you believe the hiring process is excluding the other groups. Another way of asking that is, are similarly qualified people from the other groups applying in sufficient number? Would they have been hired if they had?
