How should I adjust my interview questions for female candidates?
I think this is very helpful. I'm a SWM who's worked with all sorts of people, and the Indian women haven't seemed like a homogeneous group. One picky thing: many engineers and scientists of any makeup with caveat everything. I work with 3-4 SWM engineers right now and management regularly complain that we say stuff like "it seems to work, none of the obvious tests have failed recently" when they want to hear "Yes. It Works!".

Declining entertainment at an off-site interview - could it put an offer in jeopardy?
The brutal answer is yes, yes it could. Anything could, from hair colour to accent to shoelace preference. Realistically all you can do it be polite and hope for the best

Why would personal computers not be allowed at the office?
only one sentence at the end of that is close to answering the question (I didn't downvote, but I suspect that's why)

Why would personal computers not be allowed at the office?
My first reaction was "so, smartphones?" because these days defining "computer" is getting more difficult every day. Google glass, for example - phone, computer, or sunglasses?

How to make viewpoints in a meeting count
"bring up their ideas again". This. I'm a SWM and I do this quite consciously when someone makes a point that is ignored or dismissed because of who made it. It's necessary to later refer (usually repeatedly) to who first voiced the idea, because the people who dismissed the idea the first time will also struggle to credit it. It also helps to talk to the originator offline ASAP and mention why I did that, otherwise it's just credit stealing. Which also happens a lot.
