I disagree 100%. I have read quite a few posts on her blog as well. Most of them are purely technical; and the failures described there are mostly "Hey cool, this failed" and could be attributed to any person including herself. In the ones where she specifically blames other people or companies, I mostly see a competent, reasonable person who is fighting an uphill battle against unreasonable management, which is a trope among software developers for a reason. Like this one for example -- do you really think adding (effectively) backdoors for your special service on a Sunday evening constitutes sustainable software development? I'd rather have that "toxic attitude" than some meaningless sunshine-out-the-bottom screed about "team players who get things done".
