Certainly, there are demographics influences at play: higher Asian concentration in California, higher rates of graduation in tech fields. But all this DEI talk really makes one wonder if race-based hiring isn't at play here. It's really interesting how often people claim there's bias in hiring, but opposed anonymized hiring and other measures that eliminate the ability to discriminate between applicants.

You cannot both be correct in the reasons you dislike dei. They're contradictory. (You could both be wrong, but you can't both be right).
* Double diverse: Black or Latin + female
* diverse: white or Asian female, or Black or Latin male.
* standard: white male
* Negatively diverse: Asian male
So it definitely is the case that asian males are even more undesirable than white males at some companies. I can attest to that myself. But each company is different, some categorize Asians as diverse.
> I no longer have sympathy for DEI and other such initiatives because they will always be targeted against white people and males, no matter the state of equity/fairness in the world.
