Wow. I think I actually managed to explain how to deal with prejudices to my esteemed colleague who was sure HE doesn't have any biases.
"Think of it like you have measurement equipment that has a systematic error for some things. That's not good, but you don't have anything else. What do you do, stop measuring? Or look at the relevant cases closely and take the error into account, now that you know it exists?"

This esteemed colleague totally doesn't have any biases, a list: - says female candidate couldn't answer technical questions, claims to have notes confirming this - can't give any examples of an unanswered questions when pressed - admits female candidate gave the better presentation, adds she must've had social skills training - says female candidate doesn't have technical research focus, ignores male candidate's focus on very similar topics Nothing to see here!!!
