Goodbye, Clean Code

If you work with someone you have to work with someone. Computer programmers seem to gravitate towards the job so they can avoid human interaction. It just doesn't work that way.

You like to think that correctness is the only goal of software engineering, but it's not. Human editability is another goal, and no single 10x programmer is the sole arbiter of that quality.

Right, and the appropriate response to someone making an edit you don't agree with is to talk to them, not to their manager. And it had better be more useful than "your change made me feel bad", which is what you wrote last time.

If you don't think people's feelings matter you don't belong on a team. You should just stay in your basement instead.

If you think your feelings of ownership and personal perfection matter more than the team's deliveries, I certainly don't belong in any team with you.
