Uh, the only people you trust to work on production code are those that think their work is "ugly" (which, in the context of the article, was a euphemism for harsh, one-sided, a-hole ripping condemnation)?

Oh, but you cited evidence. Assuming you trust yourself to work on production code, it's a universal truth that all trustworthy people must think they're spawn is ugly because you yourself were able to do that with your son. Congratulations?
