Is this a joke? She just gave a bunch of them in her post.



Ah, someone "commented on her makeup" or "patted her on the head"? I've been asked to take notes in meetings from time to time, and I don't write blog posts about it...


I was about to quote the other parts of her post, but then I realized it's not worth the effort. If you don't acknowledge them after having presumably read the post, you're not going to do so when I quote them, and you'll probably throw some half-assed reasons as to why they don't meet the specific criteria of "vitriol" you had laid out in your head.

Instead, I'd like to use your post as another piece of evidence of the problems women face in the tech and programming communities. Hopefully those who do have a chance of understanding will look at your comment and go, "Wow, I can't believe some guy would say such a stupid thing. Perhaps there is a problem..."


Stop trolling.
