标题:谎言、诅咒的谎言和A16Z的统计数据
数学是一门伟大的学科,它能帮助我们分析数据、做出决策。然而,你是否曾想过,统计数据也可以被谎言丑化,被人们无情地诅咒?
在A16Z最近公布的一份关于女性职业生涯的报告中,他们引用了一张名为“第38号Slip”的照片,描述这是一张1960年NASA女性的照片,并声称NASA女性在招募时少于2%的女性被录取。
然而,这一数字在1960年是如此不真实和误导。实际上,当年NASA有12%的女性被录取。A16Z为什么要故意篡改数据呢?
有些人认为,这是为了创造一种“抱怨文化”,让女性和其他少数族裔感到自己永远无法成功。这种行为,不仅是对数据的侮辱,更是对那些奋斗、拼搏的女性的侮辱。
对于这一行为,我们不能继续保持沉默。相反,我们应该通过传播正确的数据和事实,让真相大白。这不仅是对数据本身的尊重,更是对人们的尊重。
因为,统计数据是一个国家、一个企业、一个社会发展的重要标志。如果我们无法保护好这些数据,我们的社会将变得越来越盲目、扭曲,我们将走向黑暗和混沌。
所以,用数据说话,需要更加客观、公正、真实,我们也应该更加严格地审查和监管这些数据。因为,对于我们每个人而言,真相和道德,是我们生命的基石。

In a recent report by A16Z on women’s careers, they cited a photo called “Number 38 Slip”, claiming it was a photo of NASA women in 1960s and that less than 2% of women were recruited by NASA women back then. However, this number was so untrue and misleading in 1960s. In fact, 12% of women were recruited by NASA that year. Why did A16Z deliberately manipulate the data?
Some people think that this is to create a “complaint culture” that makes women and other minorities feel that they can never succeed. This behavior not only insult the data, but also insults those struggling and striving women.
For this behavior, we cannot continue to remain silent. Instead, we should spread the correct data and facts to reveal the truth. This is not only respect for data itself, but also respect for people.
Because, statistical data is an important symbol of the development of a country, a company and a society. If we cannot protect these data, our society will become more and more blind and distorted, and we will go towards darkness and chaos.
Therefore, speaking with data requires more objectivity, fairness and truth, and we should also scrutinize and regulate these data more strictly. Because, for each of us, truth and morality are the cornerstone of our lives.
