Being 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.

@jensimmons I’m really sorry that you have to deal with that nonsense

You’d think peers would have some empathy and the loudest amongst them would be responsible enough to know better.

Sadly it seems that they’d rather chase clout, consequences for peers be damned

Keep up the good work, I appreciate your work and have great respect for you and I know for a fact that many others do as well!
