This is a perfect example of lots of negativity with no addition to the discussion. We would have been better off without the addition of the patronizing sexism and people would be more willing to listen to you. Instead, the community now gets to write you off as a jerk who relies on being bombastic rather than right.
I have contributed, I have been flamed by both Peter Z and Linus, neither really bothered me because I felt that (in my case) they were attacking the admittedly poor code quality. But your statement is far different and is of the type being discussed. You seem incapable of engaging with the idea so you attack the person. Sad, really.
