But some women in tech are choosing to do the opposite, opting instead to, lean out to work and create. One of those is Shanley Kane, who along with Amelia Greenhall, left the mainstream tech industry last year to found Model View Culture, a media company providing writing about technology, culture and diversity with a site as crisp and clean as the prose it contains.

Fortunately, we have powerful publications and women shining a bright light onto this murky world.

I’ve known Shanley Kane, the prominent Silicon Valley feminist, writer and publisher for a little while—first through her writing, and then through close friends we have in common. And I’ve always admired her: The subjects she talks about are important, she is dedicated to them with an admirable ferocity—and she can be wickedly funny. At the same time, her approach is unflinching, and her arguments are full-throttle, which often makes her the center of controversy.

That one runs a publication called Model View Culture, which has published good writing about the culture of Silicon Valley. In interviews Kane could be surprisingly intelligent. She had feminist rhetoric down, the stuff about erasure and marginalization.
