Someone said, “Well, obviously, snow clearing won’t have anything to do with gender.” It does sound, on the face of it, ridiculous. To demonstrate just how hard, Caroline started off by telling me a story that begins with a joke about gender.īasically, in this town called Karlskoga in Sweden, they were doing a gender analysis of all their local town policies. Is this a non-sweary podcast?Īnd honestly, Caroline Criado Perez has good reason to swear because this design flaw, in addition to being everywhere, is really annoying, but like so many of the worst design flaws, it can be hard to notice at first. I know that British people swear more than American people.
The copy I have is called “Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men”. My book is called “Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias…” No. Its consequences are felt by more than half of people worldwide, and most people don’t even notice it, but that’s changing, thanks in no small part to the work of one woman. It potentially affects everything we have ever built. Today’s show is about a design flaw that might be, and I’m not exaggerating here, the single-most common design flaw in human history.
