A few months ago, I made a sexist statement here on HN about women and that they don't think logically [0]. Well, I couldn't be more ashamed and sorry for that. I've known some incredible women in tech ever since, and came to realize that I was wrong. Tech is actually a place where women can shine.
[0] That statement got my account banned and I couldn't get it back.
Edit: corrected my sentences to better convey my meaning.

- bhnmmhmd 9y agoYeah, actually I didn't know how to say that in English. I'll edit it.
