She? They?

the website is called christine.website so it is probably not a man

I'd prefer http://pronoun.is/xe/xer/xer/xers/xerself but they/them works too

I don't normally care about the author's gender, but I'd argue assuming that is a man is a honest mistake, as long as women in the tech industry is still a minority. Do you really need to go that far? I think that shows how fragile you're.

when i make a mistake, i apologize and correct it.

Especially one as minor as misgendering, which inevitably happens and is easily fixed with a quick: "oh, they*! My apologies!"

so your assertion "i don't care" comes off as flippant and aggressive.
