Why aren't there more startups based on programming languages and software analysis?

There's definitely a need for SOMETHING, as developers have so much pain.

I was recently on a panel where someone asked this question. I didn't have time to answer then, so here's a thread. 1/

"Draw your own conclusions" is horrible advice to anyone who's only equipped with the tools to draw suppositions or assumptions. "Do your own research" is horrible advice to anyone who hasn't been taught how to do research.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by polotek:

But there's more to it. There are *dozens* of these examples and they *compound*. School admissions, job applications, salary offers, promotions. When *everything* is even a little bit harder, across so many areas of the struggle to get ahead, the outcomes are dramatic.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") wrote:

When they do get the data, they just minimize the harm. "It's just one more per day"

"I need the gap to be way more dramatic before I will acknowledge that there's a systemic problem."

The unspoken part is "what if Black people are just not good?"

@ScottUtah4 ("Scott Utah") replied to a tweet by ScottUtah4:

@AMachsonCarter @polotek @TroncellitiLaw @MythinformedMKE If you're trying to tell black people that statistically you have to submit just one more application per day in order to "overcome" racism.... and suggest that's the reason culturally they fail.... it's a long stretch for normal people.
