   I've been coding for 35 years, I've had a job as a programmer for 20 years, had good feedback on those jobs, I've got a PhD in CompSci ...

   ... but if someone makes a negative comment on my work it can send me spinning.

     @stephenadams @andybalaam it's common for me to put a comment in my code something like this: I did it this way because it's the only way i could get to work. if you know a better way, please tell me. better is better even if it's your idea.

     @andybalaam Me too, been a web developer for over 20 years, but if I suggest something and someone else has a better idea. I feel like I know nothing 😂 😭
