You felt free to personally attack the author of the article in an unsubstantiated manner, so I feel free to personally attack you, but with substantiation.

> You're not incubated properly given the environment from which you have came from.

This diagnosis is striking in its offensiveness, unfoundedness, entitlement, ignorance, and blatant racism and sexism. You sir, are a steaming pile of vile racist shit. How dare you invalidate someone's being, in the first place. In the second place, how dare you do so with the veiled "from which you have came from." You mean, because she's black. At least have the courage to come out and say it, you coward.

> There for lacking many many years of experience.

In addition to lacking the barest iota of sophistication, you also lack a spellchecker. I prefer my racist reading material to at least be properly spelled and grammatically correct. Perhaps you lack experience at reading and writing.

> It has nothing to do with your race, sex or age. Its simple, this environment does not provide the diversity in science and arts for this unique artisan career choice.

This word salad is difficult to parse. By "this environment," are you referring to the "tech industry" or to the author's childhood and young adult environment? I'm actually not sure which is the more repulsive, nor how either meaning can be reconciled with this having "nothing to do with ..race, sex[,] or age." For future reference, you ignorant piece of shit, diversity has everything to do with race, sex, and age, among a wide array of other categories.

> If you're not that type of person, with hunger, passion and some cleverness...then your out of luck, you're not an engineer, nor a scientist and you'll have to except only being a code jockey.

A similar statement could be made, more correctly, about the kind of engagement with the life of the mind that lets people see the mechanisms of discrimination and inequality in society. If one puts no effort into it, if one relies instead on whatever makes one most comfortable and most smug in their own status quo, one ends up like you, the moral equivalent of a code monkey, unable to articulate anything but the dreariest of racial cliches about meritocracy.

> Coming to HN and complaining about how wonderful you are and how racists the industry is will not do you any good in the real world, If you lack the skill set. Its necessary to understand most of the successful here have been working on these types of problems since we were 5, with nothing other then the motive of "how does this thing work" and "can I make it do this instead".

You are probably too stupid to see that you have provided an uncharitable interpretation of the article. I would love to hear--I take that back; I would be loathe to hear--you defend your interpretation that the author described herself as one-sidedly wonderful in an article where she details that she went to therapy. You also presumed to tell her that she "lack[ed] the skill set." Oh. My. Fucking. God. Fuck. Off. You. Racist. Asshole. You have literally no idea about the author's skill level, engagement, desire to make things work, and so on. Additionally, your analysis depends upon outright calling her a liar with regard to her assessment of her work environment. Have you fucked off, yet? Because you really, really need to. (After replacing your vile comment with an apology for your racist screed.)

> My advice, take a scientific approach since it is the field you're in and prove yourself first. Have the idea, figure it out, prove it works, then show them it works.

You want a colon after "My advice," not a comma. Jesus. Your advice. Holy shit. You are just precious. Bless your little heart.

You and your kind are the problem. You have no place in modern society. Your retrograde attitudes and toxic privileged naivete are precisely the things to which the author pointed to in her amazing and honest piece, and from which you could so fruitfully learn if you weren't, as I suspect, a wholly irredeemable racist asshole.

I cannot speak for HN as a whole, but you are not welcome, as far as I am concerned. Please delete your 15-minute-old account and go back to lurking, you vile bigot.
