- Is female [TIL the term "wogrammer"]
- Works for Facebook [formerly Rackspace and Google] so an undeniably Big MAMAA
- Has been blogging prolifically for at least 14 years [let's call it 40 years: she admin'd a BBS at age 12]
- Website is custom self-hosted; very old school and accessible; no ads or popup bullshit
- Probably has more CSE/SWE experience+talent in her little pinky finger than 80% of HN commenters

So I'd say that her position and experience command enough respect that we cannot judge her merely by peeking at a few trifling journal entries.
