		<description><![CDATA[I suspected there were stories out there like this; counterparts to the Black-trans-indeterminate-sex person getting into every Ivy League.

Speaks to several things.  Besides the war on credentials in favor of sex and genetically distinct group preferences; and the flood-the-zone credential inflation, schools have a bias for in-state people, so I can see the out of state schools passing on him for the usual reasons.  I would expect his home state schools to take him, but evidently California&#039;s war on it&#039;s citizens is still ramping up.

Rather strange that we hear about shortages of skilled workers, but the competition for CS slots in college is so competitive they pass over guys like this.  WTF?  So this guy goes straight into industry.  New plan for a new world, I suppose.]]></description>
