    Programmers used to be so hostile to women that they needed to transition (evolve) to refill the niche.

    I don’t make the rules…. but I have observed far too often for it to be coincidence that the more brilliant a type theorist is, the more likely it will be that they identify as 🏳️‍⚧️ or 🏳️‍🌈.

        I think that would be a contrapositive, as the truth table is the same; unlike a converse or an inverse where the truth tables would be opposite

        But we’re also working with inductive logic here, so maybe truth tables aren’t the right tool to use anyway

          Dunno about type theory per se but I visited a Haskell-based company a while back, and they said 50% of the women they interviewed were trans. Not sure of the cause and effect relationship. I know of several male-at-the-time programmers who got interested in Haskell and then transitioned later.
