This is true, but also IT is a huge place there is an insane amount to learn. So really you spend an incredible amount of time in the “valley of despair”. Basically anyone who brags about their skills is VERY suspect. This person is an iOS developer, which is a great career, but the title of the article is phrased like she was at least Linus Torvalds. I’m sure she had little say in this, but whilst a reaction like this is never justified I can see why people made fun of it. Also it was clearly written by someone who has no idea what the words mean. Unless I’m mistaken MIPS is a cpu architecture, you can’t program in it. You can write machine code “for” it. So yeah I can see why people assumend these claims were lies.
They assumed these claims were lies because they are sexist.
I work in tech. I taught programming at university. And guys think I have no idea what I am talking about when I am the person correcting their f*ing babies homework. I had men come into my office asking me when the Sys Admin is back in office.
They assumed these claims were lies because they are sexist.
…which is stupid because you don’t pick MIPS and ObjectiveC if you’re just flexing your hobby skills. From the language choice alone I knew she was a developer.

MIPS is processing speed. Definitely needs programming
MIPS is a CPU architecture.
But it needs programming right?
Yes, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
(I didn’t enjoy Assembly in college and I haven’t written it since)
This is one of the problems I find with computers. Same acronyms meaning different things
Million Instructions Per Second
Microprocessor Interlocked Pipeline Stages
Both relate to processors and it’s dumb
