It's also a joke because girls definitely don't care about "Fast MPMC Queues with Bounded Waiting" at all. We can estimate the HN audience to be ≈95% male.

Hi, author of the blog post here, that was in fact not the joke. I'm a girl, I care. I just like playing off of that song's title.
All girls or most girls?
I definitely know some girls who'd love this, and see this as having fun.

That's hard to believe. Then you should know at least an order of magnitude more "boys" who would love this: At an estimated 95% male ratio on HN, 20 times as many. If the "some girls" you "definitely" know are 3, then you would be expected to know about 3x20=60 males who are interested in "fast MPMC queues with bounded waiting", which sounds about equally hard to believe.
