Beautiful. (h/t @Scientific_Bird)
Now, by the Law of Lemoine about papers that purport to show the world is terribly unfair, if I go and dig into the paper's data/tables, I'm almost guaranteed to find something politically incorrect. I should work but I don't know if I'll resist the temptation.
Okay I couldn't resist and I didn't have to look for very long before the Law of Lemoine was once again vindicated

The part I really love is that when they reminded the programmers that discrimination could make their algorithms biased, it actually *increased* bias, because they were already biased in favor of women so it made them even more so. This paper is truly a narrative-killer

To be clear, I think it's very likely this effect isn't real because as a rule priming effects aren't, but I'm going to ignore that and "believe science" for once because it's so beautiful
