Sorry, my comprehension of English is not sufficient for
this.
What do you mean here?
I for my side am very happy that Andras takes care about the
code quality. And
I am always grateful if others do this for me with my code,
because I get an
opportunity to learn and it prevents me from having my name
associated to bad
code.
But of course getting criticized hurts my ego and can create
unpleasant
feelings. But IMHO this is the price for improving myself.
I think we need to uphold a certain standard of our
codebase. This can be done
by preventing code from coming into the codebase that does
not meet our
criteria. Or we can accept code and when we see the need to
talk about it we
start a discussion. This is what I observed here.
