Surprised this isn't getting more upvote love. I liked the collection of resources and have bookmarked it for later!

This is a great idea! I haven't seen anything like it and also I think you kill of the forum to discuss photos and just attach comments to photos directly (sort of like instagram). Wonder if there is anything legally against chipping in like this?

I like this idea. Now do you propose that a municipality create a startup accelerator with the requirement for funding being that you are willing to relocate?

Would be pretty amazing if they through in office space / housing for the first few years. One would have to believe it would pay off quickly.

You learn something new every day. I didn't even know there was a downvote threshold!

Also relevant, check out the decline in Detroit at present:

Watched this weekend and it is available for streaming. Pretty scary to think this sort of decline could hit any major city.

Why has this been downvoted?

Thanks for the comment! I don't want us to ignore the situation but it seems like the laser focus we are currently putting on the subject could be a bad thing for women in general.

I love how this shallow and superficial article has been on the front page all day. I struck a chord and obviously people saw something in it. Leave it at that and stop being so negative.

I would hope that cultures aren't the norm and instead the exception. Unfortunately I am probably mistaken.

Would be very interesting to see if someone could dig up this data.

So is the imbalance addressed by showing more women that STEM is a valid choice from an early age or is it that we start at the firms and try to work your way backwards? At a certain point is it a systemic failure?
