The alternative:- accessibility requirements for all levels of the stack. Disabled sysadmins exist! - enforce GDPR, especially the threat assessment requirements. Diversity helps here. - project codes of conduct. We have laws regarding workplace harassment. Public funds should come with this requirement. I should not have to scan the "About" page for the names of serial abusers. - at this point, I believe in quotas. Hosting "women in tech" hackathons at companies with 99% white dudes in technical positions hasn't worked. There is no excuse for these numbers. Quotas *increase* the number of competent people.
