I don't want to push too hard, but here's two reasons it would be better for you to pull out that list:

The first is that it gives a heads up to the few women here who are just entering the field. It may open up discussions for how to handle such situations when they arise.

The other reason is that not sharing these examples is just as good as saying they never happened. Real concerns become phantom accusations of prejudice against women that don't ever get addressed.

The nice thing about Hacker News is that I think you doubt I'm making any of this up, and so I don't have to violate confidences to make a point.

You're right, though I do think a lot of the issue has nothing to do with explicit instances of sexism. A lot of things don't need to be said out loud to have a negative effect on women in the field.
