      I’m not a programmer but dabble. I’m always so nervous when actual programmers look at my code.

        True programmers know that novice code is a rite of passage. Every programmer worth their salt looks at their own older code and cringes at it. Most people who do this for a living are more likely to give helpful pointers rather than tear you down, if anything.

        If someone is being a jerk to you about your code, stop listening to them immediately and walk away or block them.

          yep, do this all the time with my own code… even for yesterdays code prior to second coffee time!
