Yeah, just reading the abstract tells a different story than the graph she uses.
Google or a college level computer science course is specifically pulling from adults who are in the very top percentiles in logical/quantitative skills.
The abstract of the paper notes that while the math difference is small among the total population: "differences favoring men emerged in high school and college" and "grew larger with increasingly selective samples, and were largest for highly selected samples and samples of highly precocious persons."
So the slide deck obscures the fact that in the relevant sample, men have better skills, by including the general population (women, average folks) where there is no difference.
