Lyndsey Scott is a Victoria’s Secret model and software engineer who recently received some negative backlash from internet trolls doubting her coding abilities. The model decided to not stay quiet and quickly shut them down with a powerful response.

At 34-years-old, Lyndsey is already a highly accomplished software engineer, ranked as one of the top iOS responders on Stack Overflow. She is also a part of an iOS tutorial team at RayWenderlich.com and has even done video tutorials for kids along with tech giants like Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates on Code.org. One Reddit user has started a thread with some of the troll’s comments to draw attention to the issue and Lyndsey’s response to the haters was just too perfect.

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
