For scientific studies you're basically stuck with scihub and unpaywall.

Yeah those sorts of positions are usually locked to college students. So once you graduate you can no longer apply despite those being the positions you're qualified for.

yeah sorry I don't have that sort of mental health to be able to just continually throw myself at a wall for years on end when there ain't even a person on the other side.

If they're amab and self identifying as nonbinary, they'd be transgender by definition.

How do you distinguish between the people who genuinely identify as nonbinary and those who are dishonestly doing it?

I'm a woman and wasn't even at the event. No clue it was going on, and it seems like it'd be far too expensive for me to attend in the first place. If they're looking for women who are eager to work for them, they're looking in the wrong place.

>hiring for entry level

>saying people are underqualified

The problem is with the companies, not the job seekers. Actually offer true entry level positions, and actually hire the people that apply.

I'm a trans woman and don't bother applying because I know that my resume isn't even looked at, and the interview hurdles are just so high that they'll just say no anyway. What's the point if companies refuse to hire me?

Tech is overcrowded as a field and it gets worse each year. So yes.

So they identified as men, and the event allowed the men to come? Then I'm failing to see what the issue is?

>Promotes self id for nonbinary

>Event is for nonbinary people

>Get upset when people identify as nonbinary and attend the event

I'm not sure I'm seeing why people are upset?

They should just get rid of the expectations of sales numbers like what current AAA get. If we want better games, less people will buy them, because a good game isn't for everyone.
