I think the answer is "no."

This is painful to read. Â Their big name speaker is a comedienne, not a female programmer. Â Maybe they should borrow one of Microsoft's, Google's, or Yahoo's.
From their "marquee" speaker: QUOTE I was into Latin, which is 100 percent more boring than coding. But I was into it because of the way that it was sold to me in high school. It was really social, and I felt like cool people were doing it and that’s why I wanted to do it. If coding can be sold that way, that’s awesome. You're trying to sell programming based on its social merits?  That's like selling baseball based on its nonstop action.

Wow. That is either the most poorly thought out and accidentally sexist thing I've seen in awhile, or it's so subtly ironic as to be genius self-effacing social commentary. I suspect the former, but wish for the latter.

What are they going to do to these women to get them coding... remove their ability to get laid whenever they want?
