But if you read the entire article, the author concludes that this is due to bias AGAINST women.

It takes some pretty fabulous wordsmithing and use of data to accomplish this feat but:

  • More women hit 100% code acceptance than men.
  • More women's code is accepted than men's.
  • More women's code addresses new features than men's.
  • More women - who are known to a team - have their code accepted than known men.

All overwhelmingly good, right? However...

  • Less women's code is accepted than men's when the women is unknown to the team AND publicly identifies as a woman.

All positive, with that one exception, so... misogyny!
