Guy takes a selfie with a Darth Vader cutout to send to his kids, gets Facebook shamed by woman who thought he was taking pictures of her kids.

As a 31 year old kinda weird looking bearded single male with some eccentric hobbies...this is my worst nightmare.

Re: Nice Planet IX: Oh that's just GREAT...

I'd say something about helicopter parenting, but I guess this idiot is OK with leaving her 3 kids in front of a TV display, and thinking they will stay out of trouble and be safe while she heads off shopping. :rolleyes:

Doxxing is never cool, people. It doesn't matter who they are, what they said, or what you think they might be up to. Don't be a vigilante.
 
Re: Nice Planet IX: Oh that's just GREAT...

Completely agree. I can't wait for someone to get sued back into the stone age for doxxing someone. And I mean taken for EVERYTHING.
 
Re: Nice Planet IX: Oh that's just GREAT...

In fact, I'd be OK with making that a felony with some prison time. It's just despicable.
 
Re: Nice Planet IX: Oh that's just GREAT...

I'm guessing that doesn't turn out well for the town.

Today in derp.

There is one tiny kernel of truth within that galaxy of derp, though. Even in a world without bias, companies would (and should) reward people, regardless of gender, who go the extra mile. I don't know what a world without bias would look like (nobody does), but it's theoretically possible that even in that world, decisions about prioritizing work vs. other (any other, not just kids/family) might not break down exactly equally by gender. So even in that world, there would still end up a disparity in pay/achievement/advancement by gender.

Therefore, I think it's a rather lazy shortcut for people just to look at outcomes (salary disparity) and claim that they've proved something. If you want to prove bias exists (and I firmly believe that it does) - be my guest, and I'll 100% agree with you if you do a scientifically rigorous analysis. Mere data collection is not science.
