    Technical criticism, even when direct and unpadded, is not rude.
    Indeed, it can be a form of flattery: the critic is saying, by
    implication, that the target is worth taking seriously, and is worth
    spending some time on. That is, the more viable it would have been
    to simply ignore someone's post, the more of a compliment it becomes
    to take the time to criticize it (unless the critique descends into
    an ad hominem attack or some other form of obvious rudeness, of
    course). 

tl;dr: Reviewing your code is not a personal attack.  Quite the
opposite.

Cheers,

Daniel
