- staunch 7y agoYes? I saw some number of comments along these lines on Adam Savages' 3D printed titanium Iron Man suit. That "he just paid someone to do the hard/interesting part". And I've seen comments along these lines on Colin Furze's builds. Among others, mostly men. It seems explicitly sexist to leap to the defense of female creators in this way. Why not just assume they can handle the criticism, just as well as males can, and don't need anyone defending them?
- lawnchair_larry 7y agoYes. Not only do they do that for men, but Elon specifically, and even calling him out on taking credit for work that an uncredited woman working for him did. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18093145 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18093145 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19636499 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19636499 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20078510 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20078510 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9812261 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9812261
