I think it is worth noting that he was called out in public on the content of a private message. It is also unclear what, if anything, leads the complainer to take the comment that her basic headshot is stunning to imply "eroticisation" or being "misogynistic" (at least that is a word), although I guess I can see "objectification". An obvious question, perhaps for the careers forum, is who in their right mind would consider hiring this woman after this little dust-up.

Quote just received a private message from someone in this group for whom I have great technical respect. He informed me that I had marked one of his posts as "inappropriate," when I, in fact, had never even gotten to read it. I had seen the post and it interested me, so I don't think I would have thought of it as "inappropriate," and I certainly never would have marked it as such until (at least) I had the chance to read it. I cede the omnipotence of knowing content and intent before reading something to the press and to moderators. But this is another mark (perhaps even an "inappropriate" one, against what is happening on these boards.

Only 1% of the people can predict the next number: 2,4,8,16,...??!!?"It looks like an advertorial/endorsement by the great man.
