I don’t care what somebody believes about the pile of code they’ve got sitting on their own computer. The appropriate level of engagement is sort of: well, they don’t owe us any evidence we don’t owe them any credulity, and if we’re all happy to ignore each other that’s fine.

I can see why some folks here want to quibble, though. In other comments in this thread, they’ve compared to code quality favorably to the output of an average developer. That’s slightly insulting to the field in general (although, I guess most programmers have a low opinion of average code quality).
