Jen SimmonsBeing a woman in the tech industry has unfortunately given me an incredible amount of experience dealing with hate, harassment, & violent verbal attacks. It’s given me an incredibly thick skin. However recent attacks are pushing me over some kind of edge. It’s horrible to work hard on something for years, with an amazing team, only to have the weirdest, totally-wrong theories floated around as fact, endorsed by colleagues across the web industry. This level of hatred and cynicism is shocking.
Ivan Reese@jensimmons Terribly sorry to hear that! I've followed your work for what feels like forever, and it's always helped me as I've grown from beginner to expert. Thank you for sticking it out as long as you have, and I hope you persevere — but no matter what, do what you need to to take care of yourself.
