I'm a technology anomaly
Study: IT has too few women, minorities
Women and some racial minorities are "significantly under-represented" in the technology industry. The one exception: Asians. Asians are OVER-represented. It's cuz we "love crunching numbers." We can code ourselves out of nuclear war. And why are there less women and minorities? Because the number of administrative positions in the technology industry is shrinking. Do they mean answering phones? Because I don't answer phones. I barely speak to humans unless it is through the means of e-mail, instant messenger, or an iChat.

I love that we just IM'd hello, and now you're writing about loneliness. You need less coding, more interaction! God damn our need for physical/financial security!

"You need less coding, more interaction!" ...he says, after posting a comment to a blog.
"Look in the mirror, you sod," said the Kettle to the Pot.
Admittedly, I have been having too much interaction and worrying too much about financial security lately to post over in my little corner of the "blogosphere." Damn everything!
TYA's definition for "hedeghog" made me LOL.
OMG, I just wrote LOL. FYI, I should be shot.
ASAP.
