My dudes, it's likely I've been programming longer than you've been alive.

And transitioning didn't somehow make me ignorant, motherfuckers.

Either way, toxic behavior shouldn't be excused.

Oh, hell yeah. I saw how all that went with my friend, M, who is right at this moment on her way across the country to have the top done. She had her priorities and bottom was first. The sheer amount of prep ... the research for all of it. Then you add all the crap you have to put up with from ignoramouses. For this trip, M bought a tracking service so that another friend and I will be notified if she doesn't check in; the danger is real and that fucking sucks.

But I think there's an obvious reason why they wouldn't do the same thing to Torvalds or Berners-Lee.
