they should also ban web developers who refer to themselves as ninjas, especially code ninjas

Ninjas, super-heroes, black-belt and terms like that are known gender-excluders. I’ve been through a couple of adjustment sessions for company standard job descriptions and it’s unreal how you can change the applicant mix by wording.

What if you do it ironically? Like calling yourself a Code Ninja Jedi 10x Rockstar 🚀?
