Discussion on: Should tech companies use quotas to increase diversity?

IMO, this quota idea is kind of racist/sexist in a different way. Equality means that nobody is treated differently, not better or worse.

If a company chooses not to have a diverse team and that hinders it, then that's most appropriate.

p.s. I'd also like to see some kind of anonymous recruiting system like one of the commentators said.

p.s.2 I also like to point out two groups of people tech companies shy away from--the poors and the seniors.

Anonymous recruiting tends to result in less diversity in that it avoids the differently brilliant.
