When you say 'leave your ego behind', you seem to mean "don't say mean things about the code of another, because you're only doing that make yourself feel better (and BTW, you shouldn't assume your code is much better)". Couldn't it equally well mean "don't be insulted when some random guy on the internet says mean things about your code"? Haters gonna hate and all?
- bmj 14y agoSure, but the latter doesn't mean the former is okay, especially when it comes from folks who are, to some extent, "celebrity" programmers. Better still, why go out of your way to criticize someone else's code?
