Some of the code that I'm known for is Linux networking -- I wrote essentially all of the network device drivers until about 2000. You aren't calibrated to feedback if you think thought anything there was a harsh comment. A real review would be much harsher. The early Linux mailing lists would leave you shaking in the corner.
And to put it in perspective, 100x more people will read this comment than will read the source code. I'm guessing that exactly three people have read the code to this point.
