First Marissa Mayer destroys Yahoo, and now another female CEO, Elizabeth Holmes, goes from a net worth of $4.5 billion to $0. Should women stop meddling in things they're not good at, and get back to the kitchen? What does /pol/ think of this easily predictable/preventable disaster?
>>75870372

>>75870372
Just look at that vacant look in her eyes, literally nothing going on back there
>>75870487
Exactly, they should concentrate on pumping out kids like they were meant to
>>75870487
They should stick to this. It's what they do best!
>>75870372
Women make terrible business people, mainly because they don't have the competitive edge. Being male is about constantly sizing up enemies and potential threats, females are too kind.
Jews in general make horrible business people. I know the cliche is that jews are good with money, but they seldom ever make it ethically. Unethical behavior in a business is a form of managerial weakness. Jews are good at making bubbles and sucking blood from consumers.

>>75870549
>How?
She claimed her company had invented a blood test that could give instant results without having to sent to a lab.
As it turned out, she was full of shit. the product did not work at all, it was a total fraud, and any results they produced were actually sent to a lab, just as any other blood sample would be.
Were she not a female, she'd probably be in jail.
As for Meyer, she took the job--already very rich from google-- and decided it wold be a good idea to have 2 kids in the midst of her first years there.
She also spent 5 million dollars on a Christmas ("Holiday") party where she sat on a couch and would let employees have their photo taken next to her in a flowing purple dress like she was the Queen of France in the 1600s.
She's done nothing, and th eonly reason yahoo is not totally broke is bc another division of company is doing well, which last I heard they were trying to sell.
She's been a fucking nightmare. Then we have Carly Fiorina, who destroyed HP. They just are not fit for such jobs. And the PC insanity has gone so far that ppl will lose billions of dollars just so as not to appear "sexist."
>>75872676
It's not so much that they "fell" for something, so much as it was surrendering to outside aggression, namely, feminazis. Any of that sound familiar to you?

As a mysogynist, racist, and a level thirty-six wizard, this is the truth:
There are good women and good minorities, but far less than is claimed, and the absolute worst thing you could possibly do to them is what we do, the phony, virtue-signalling, potential-exterminating, smothering in unrealistic expectations.
I remember an article about a cute, smart Chinese girl and her science fair project -- the title was "12yo nonwhite girl CURES CANCER."
Let them merely succeed. Stop demanding that they reinvent the wheel.
>>75873230
The left is actually a bit more complex than just a "sqrt function". It's actually a reverse square root using a magic number (0x5f3759df), or most formally known as "fast inverse square root". It's perhaps the most famous sqrt function known in programming. Overall, it gave rise to better graphics back in Quake III Arena using far less hardware.

and the fucking comments are atrocious, both in the code and for the tweet itself
In my experience women are just good at manipulating men. Be it their clients, superiors or coworkers. Hats how they get into such positions and that's how they succeed at them. The problem is that they spend money on frivolous things increasing overhead and they reaist being austere when the money starts to dry up. My parents would complain about money then my mother would go and buy hundreds of dollars on shitty decorations that no one cared about and only generated trash and work.

>>75873230
Q_ because it's from Quake 3. rsqrt because it returns the reciprocal of the square root.
>>75874476
Then she should stick to looking good instead of pretending she can write code to get attention and project pseudo-intelligence. Same goes for women in general to be honest
>>75872470
The first person that designed the code on the left probably has a top job at Google or something and is a multi millionaire.
The code on the right would get you a D in an introductory programming course if the teacher was feeling generous

She made a blood test that she claimed didn't involve needles and didn't need to be sent to the lab. She received billions in investment. Turns out she was full of shit. Now she blames it on the media for putting forth a story that was inaccurate, despite the fact that she was doing the whole PR run on this platform.
tl;dr turns out she is a fraud and as another anon said, if it were a man they'd be sent to prison
>>75874707
most likely it was a college professor or a graduate student working for one. all the greatest single-shot assembly functions i've ever seen came from dusty old handwritten notes one of my professors had, work uncited. usually the need for such a function as rsqrt arises in physics or math, and some golden-boy undiscovered programmer who is attached to that discipline is the one to crank it out.

There are amazing female leaders (founder of Epic Systems from my hometown for one) but in general they are far shittier than male CEOs.
The difference between genders in leadership is that a man can't say >but muh bagina when he cocks things up. He actually has to produce results. The worst of the worst male leaders get removed from their roles more often than do women.
Theranos was ALWAYS a scam. The cunt and her professor at Stanford who put her up to it should get life in prison for defrauding so many people.
>>75876201

Fucking moron. It's the Fast Inverse Square Root function. It uses bit-shifting to approximate the inverse square root of a given number much more quickly than a regular inverse square root operation. It's accurate enough that it was used to save processor time when calculating light sources in early 3D games like Quake. It was an integral part of the original IDTech engine, which is the grandfather of all first person 3D rendering engines, so it's pretty fucking important.

There was nothing at Yahoo to destroy. It's a shit tier search provider (reliant on licensed Google tech), content aggregator, and a financial news website. That ain't worth all that much.

>>75876717
It doesn't need to be readable because it's not subject to change. It's an optimized algorithm that won't be touched in a while.
The variable names are due to the mathematical procedure being done, so they're not quite meaningless. It's just that you don't understand them. The reason why the variables are reassigned multiple times is because it's an iterative approach with a set amount of iterations.

its meant to be a "challenge".
perform multiplication without using the built in operator. you could use an approach which sums a, b times (ie. if a = 3, result = b + b + b), but its better to use an approach which relies on bit shifting and conditionally summing based on the lowest bit, since this operates in logarithmic time

The thing is, it is readable. It's only the presence of the magic constant that makes it mysterious. Nothing would make it any easier to understand other than a paper walking the reader through each bit toggle.
>>75880300
>>75876717
it already is readable
number refers to the initial input, x2 and y refer to the typical names used when applying newtons method, with i being the signed 2 bits complement interpretation of the floating bit field. if you cant understand it thats another problem entirely.

But hey man, don't be afraid of this code. It's just a select few people on here who get it, that shouldn't fool you into believing the code is "easy to understand for every programmer". It's not. It's quite special and we only get it because we've seen it before. But sometimes code needs to be this way for speed reasons. If you're studying CS or do programming, you might want to check out P. J. Plaugher's book on The Standard C Library. It contains implementations similar to this, although you might not understand them either.

Given the number of female CEOs, what's the failure rate?
Are there proportionally more failed male CEOs or Female CEOs?
>>75885785
>Who the fuck would quit a job for not getting free food?!
I would. I the valley it's not that hard to get $250K a year in compensation. So you also consider other things. Like free food. Or concierges to take care of shit for you.
It's also a good business move. The more your employees are dealing with daily bullshit (like cleaning clothes, finding food, etc.) the less they focus and work.
MS used this to great effect. Redmond was not much of a place - quiet residential. So between not having anything around, and having MS offer everything to live there (showers, food, etc.) they'd get smart young guys to work all the time.
Though nowadays there are older engineers that value shit like family and "work life balance", there's still a lot of kids that are impressed with all the perks.
$450 over 4 years is like 2% of Yahoo's revenue. That's a bit high but may be worth it. (Maybe it also includes more than just "food".)
>>75877359
The financial/stock arm of Yahoo was competitive. So was their email. They also used to be the second largest search engine.
Google and Bing took away thier core buisness, and the CEO was busy quagmireing them in ridiculous acquisitions (none of which were related to thier core buisness). Tumblr was just the most humorous example.
Now if you were a shareholder or an employee would you be pleased about all this?

I've been in both blue-collar and white-collar environments and the women were always terrified of breaking the consensus, whatever it was and no matter how small the consensus was. They're natural "yes men". I don't know if this is evolution or what but it's fucking annoying. I once had a women literally shrieking at me over a bucket of paint; I said that another gallon was needed and this bitch(actually a nice church lady) was flipping out because her friend estimated everything properly and I must be wrong.
The passive-agressive, "killing with kindness" leadership style reigns in an office full of women where the goal is to avoid embarassing anyone. It actually does okay I think in low-stress workplaces or jobs when there is lots of flexibility. The major problem with this style is that when bad shit does happen (like deadlines not being met) the women explode on each other in big fits because they don't ever directly confront each other. So instead of routinely hashing out problems in a relatively calm, systematic manner (like professionals) they put things off until too late and then get hysterical.

No, they should do whatever they want, to the best of their abilities. If that means they're only good in the kitchen, then so be it. But they shouldn't be refused from becoming leaders or whatever. That said, they should also not be forced to become leaders either. This whole leftist shaming women of how little there are by reminding everyone how few women at the top exist, won't make more of them appear.
Also, just because one shit woman failed doesn't mean all women will fail and therefore shouldn't be allowed to try.

There's a lot of information out there if you look for it. IIRC, Mayer met the Google founder in college. Later, when Google was founded as a company, she was brought on as employee 20. The founders were working on it in college, BTW.
IIRC, there was some interview that implied the relationship ended in college, but if true, why the stupid fuck would look up his ex and hire her as 20, is beyond me. When I read between the lines, I see a narrative where she's fucking him, she's also an A-type comp sci peer, he founds Google, she naturally comes on board, he realizes she's a psycho with zero skills, he isolates her the best way he can, by putting her in charge of the home page design - which is literally nothing - and hopes she eventually quits, marries someone, takes her money. But the bitch never does that. Page can't fire her because that would be a huge sexual harassment nightmare.
Hmmm. Maybe Page is responsible somehow for dumping her on Yahoo. Maybe he paid someone off. Maybe a whole bunch of people. Maybe he thought it was the only way he could get rid of her. And he was probably right.

The more I think about this, the more sense it makes. I don't know why anyone in Silicon Valley would take Mayer seriously. Especially not as a CEO for a major company.
For Page, it makes so much sense. At the end, Mayer was a huge detriment to Google. She took up space, pissed everyone off, kept good people down. Yahoo was competing with Google still.
Why not unload your worst employee onto one of your biggest competitors? It's a fucking win win for you. Getting her into the CEO position is a bonus.
If she completely tanks Yahoo, you buy it cheap, she's out, don't need three CEOs, and you're in a better position than before. Meanwhile, Mayer has no idea you destroyed her. She thinks she destroyed herself. All her nervous type-A energy isn't directed into a lawsuit against you. Instead, she blames herself and maybe does some charity work. She can irritate starving kids in Africa or something.
This is why Page is a genius.
