My girlfriend was wondering why programmers are so pedantic, and my primary response was "because they can never be wrong", and as a corollary it becomes important to always be right and develop a culture that points out every flaw in competence.

Its a pretty bad trait we should do something about that and just continue striving for peer reviewable code and implementations.

I know what you mean, but it's also despicable when companies which are based around security don't take the extra care they should to protect their users. I don't respect that, and I think they deserve every ounce of criticism.

With that said, I definitely agree on things that aren't security related.
