Our results show that women's contributions tend to be accepted more often than men's [when their gender is hidden]. However, when a woman's gender is identifiable, they are rejected more often.

That’s not an excellent example. If they refuse to collaborate with them, and also don’t make any claims about the quality of code, then the claim that their objectivity in reviewing code is tainted doesn’t hold.
Been on a Cyberpunk 2077 binge for the last 2 weeks or so. I’m maybe 4-6 hours away from completing everything except the final main story mission. It’s been an absolute pleasure, I haven’t found myself wanting to come back to a singleplayer game in the same way for some time.

The proposed penalties seem low to me. A max of $3.65M annually for operating means that so long as your operations in the county make more net profit than that, there’s no reason to leave. It seems to me that by merging any smaller operations, one could end up with a large enough operation to make that math work pretty trivially. Hell, for all I know even a rather small operation could be making that much.
Given that this was an activist-driven ballot initiative, it confuses me why they’re not simply basing the fines on profits…
