Joind.in data get scraped into a MySQL DB using Node 10 with TypeScript and Sequelize, yielding ~2,500 events and gender guesses for 95% of users via Genderize/Gender-API; analysis finds a ~5:1 male:female speaker ratio, women average 13 comments vs 6 for men, and a logistic regression shows male commenters are ~0.25 as likely to give a high rating to female speakers while female commenters are ~3× more likely to rate female speakers highly — results drive concrete UI and rating-scale recommendations.
