When someone corrects your code

I am really happy when people are quite strict in code reviews, it makes me feel safer and I get to learn more.

Nothing worse than some silent approvals with no real feedback. What if I missed something obvious... and now it's merged.

To be fair, I also enjoy getting my grammar corrected. I'm juggling 3 languages and things can get messy.

In that spirit, I will call attention to your first sentence, specifically the comma. In my opinion, that can be improved. One of three other constructions would be more appropriate:

I am really happy when people are quite strict in code reviews, because it makes me feel safer and I get to learn more.

The first of my suggested changes is favoured by those who follow the school of thought that argues that written sentences should be kept short and uncomplicated to make processing easier for those less fluent. To me, it sounds choppy or that you've omitted someone asking "Why?" after the first sentence.

Personally, I prefer the middle one, because it is the full expression of a complete state of mind. You have a feeling and a reason for that feeling. There is a sense in which they are inseparable, so not splitting them up seems like a good idea. The "because" explicitly links the feeling and reason.

The semicolon construction was favoured by my grade school teachers in the 1960s, but, as with the first suggestion, it just feels choppy. I tend to overuse semicolons, so I try to go back and either replace them with periods or restructure the sentences to eliminate them. In this particular case, I think the semicolon is preferable to both comma and period, but still inferior to the "because" construction.

I've clearly spent too much time hashing stuff out in writers' groups. :)
- This is what I live for. :D
  
  I agree with most of that. In formal settings, I prefer full sentences with conjunctions; however, choppy sentences are the ones that often end up in my Lemmy comments.
- Strange, I get a mild hostility vibe from colleagues if I review too ambitiously.
Yeah, I learn so much from code reviews and they've saved me so much time from dumb mistakes I missed. I've also caught no shortage of bugs in other people's code that saved us all a stressful headache. It's just vastly easier to fix a bug before it merges than once it breaks a bunch of people.

We Americans like to forget that anyone might have any trouble understanding English especially in cases of polyglots.

I don't know which is your native tongue but from this comment it looks like you're doing a fine job.
Assuming you have competent leadership, then it wouldn't be merged if you missed something obvious. I guess you're saying that you want more positive reinforcement.

I will correct both + your spelling because it drives me fucking nuts when I can't find a function or variable due to it being severely misspelled

Me omw to tell the POSiX guys it's supposed to be "O_CREATE" instead of "O_CREAT":
- Chars are expensiv

Correcting my code is helpful. The machine didn't know what I even meant. Computers are interesting and changing rapidly.

Correcting my grammar is an unsolicited English lesson from someone who already knew what I meant. English is not interesting or changing quickly.

What if your grammar is that bad that people struggle to understand you?

I know someone who is incomprehensible most of the time. I have to ask probing questions just to vaguely understand what they're trying to communicate. I've politely told them more than once about the issue but they never try; they're not mentally challenged or anything, just an ass.
- Then they couldn't correct you.
- I've never met a native speaker like that, but yeah I think they're the exception that proves the rule.
fr fr no cap

It's actually "their'yre" dumby, learn ur words

You're* grammer

Grammar is code.

However, real grammar and prescribed textbook grammar are two different things.
- Anybody who bitches about prescriptivism is just mad that their grammar sucks.
  
  Edit: this always gets 'em crawling out of the woodwork

I use incorrect grammar all the time on Lemmy because I'm writing colloquially, comma splices are my biggest offense.

Fuck me, never touch my code, it is perfect.

Brother you don't even remember what it does, how and why after 3 days
- Of course, but because it is perfect, no one, not even myself, needs to fix/modify/extend/understand

Someone Renames your objects "because they sound better that way"...

It should be normalized to kiss the furry femboy programmer who corrects your code as a thank you.
