Wouldn't it be funny if she was larping as a man originally to get published etc, thinking nobody would take her seriously for being a woman in a predominantly male space. "Krzysztof", btw is the Polish version of Christoph, Christopher etc. Weird that their school email apparently had the original surname though. Normally trannies only change their first name.
Also iirc Jan is a unisex name. I have male friends called Jan but I also know of females named that too.
Not to drag this topic but no, Jan is not unisex name in polish. And no, we're not living medieval times, we don't have to put fake mustache to study "men things" and publish.
Rutkowski, as competent as he may be, is a tranny who tries to paint himself as a "strong whamen in IT" and whining about the field being too male-centric for his liking, while narcs like him are making actual women uncomfortable and more likely to hide.
The more autistic the job is, the more likely it is to be a troon
You have no idea how disheartening it is when you want to find a nerd gal-pal and every single time it turns out to be some unwashed creep called Lily

I actively avoid reading articles about "prominent women in CS" because 90% of a time it's a troon.
Also it's not like there are NO women doing low level stuff, I know a few. But it's literally "a few", like less than ten of them in my entire life. They also tend to be really low-profile, don't have strong internet presence, don't draw attention to themselves, don't participate in dick measuring contests.
Why? Some of it is caused by women being less competitive, some because of plain old creeps, sure, but I also notice the trend of being insecure and scared to be classified as diversity hires/hacks trying to force themselves into the industry by having boobs (think Jackie SnackingButtLegal). Also usually they are incredibly autistic.
Fun fact: all of the women I'm referring to hate troons

(spare one verilog dev, since she's a pooner)
Sorry for a word-vomit sperg, it's been on my mind since yesterday, I feel better now.
