OK, ISWYM. I wouldn't make the claim it's settled but someone did and you're right. Upvoted.
None of those timelines are realistic:

* Most CLs don't take multiple days to write

* Reasonably-sized CLs take 5-10 minutes to review - if I have things to say. Much less if the code looks good and I don't have any requests.

* I cannot think of any CL in the last 5 years where I made a comment that caused someone to "rewrite everything from scratch". Most feedback can be done in a few clicks in an IDE which supports refactor or a few minutes of copy/paste.
This is a weird comment. Did you really think most schools widely police cell phone usage in the year 2023?
If it's the first time - yeah, reach out to the person and talk to them.

But if the person is consistently leaving such comments under the guise of mentorship, 'raising the bar', or some other bullshit which boils down to them attempting to demonstrate their own seniority at the expense of other people's time and stress - then showing them how it feels is a great approach.

Bringing in other people and managers is not very effective I've found - it takes additional time, other people have their own stuff to focus on, and managers often don't have the technical expertise or confidence to push back against subjective comments which claim to be 'raising the bar' or whatever. It also doesn't look great when you have to bring other people in to help you address PR comments.

And, of course, you do this without ostensibly creating any conflict - if they complain simply respond along the lines of 'I totally love the care and attention to detail you bring when reviewing my PRs, I've learned from you and thought it would be appropriate to keep the same high standards and not lower the bar... etc'.

> As they go, if it isn't clear, I just ask them if something is a soft opinion or hard opinion.

Nah, if they don't explicitly state that's a soft opinion via 'nit', approving with comment or some other means, they are disrespecting the person who's PR they are reviewing. I shouldn't have to chase them down to see how strong their opinions are.

> If it keeps being in issue, then some frank conversations need to happen. Something I've noticed about folks who steadfastly focus on minor stylistic nits in CRs is they (1) tend to be cargo culting them without understanding the why behind them and (2) they're usually missing the forest (actual bugs in logic) for the trees.

What do you do if the comments are purely subjective and all backed up by internal/corporate dogmaspeak? 'Raising the bar' ... 'keeping the standards high' ... 'mentoring', etc. , or open ended comments asking to explain how stuff works, and whether 'this approach is the best'? There is no shortage of rhetorical bullshit that can be used to justify subjective PR comments.

> Most people are pretty reasonable when they don't feel like they're under attack, so in my experience it's usually possible to resolve these things without dragging it out.

The above will generally not work in a company that emphasizes PR comment count as a good metric for promotions/performance, and has a lot of internal rhetorical dogma. You WILL get people who leave these types of comments because they view it as a way of promoting their career, these people often cannot be reasoned with logically because they aren't actually all that smart, and they view any pushback against their comments as an attack against them.

Other people's feedback against the bullshit comments definitely help, but can look bad if you keep reaching out to other people to help address PR comments - I made sure to go through other people's PRs, on my own initiative, and refute bullshit comments when I realized how some people were behaving.

And yeah it totally depends on the company/team.

What baffles me (as someone working in Advanced Composites) is why not simply get rid of the steel, the steel-concrete interface, the chloride ion and corrosion problem altogether — by instead using rebar made of composites?

Rebar of fiberglass, carbon fiber, basalt, and other combinations is all redily available and has known properties.

The key issue is that steel will corrode, then expand and put the concrete in tension (which concrete sucks at reacting), causing the concrete to crack, then spall off. None of the composites do this.

Yet, despite composites being available for years, and even being cheaper than steel [0], they are being picked up at remarkably slow rates.

It seem blindingly obvious to me that everyone should have just switched some time ago. Yet, this has not happened. Why?

With respect to serialization, failure rates, reliability, safety culture, and response to failures, then yes, I assert that a widely-deployed nuclear reactor design would behave much more like an airplane design than it would a design from any other industry. Two-digit or three-digit unit counts, very tight regulatory requirements, immediate and visible human safety implications for major failures, most of the line's production is active concurrently, extremely attentive and active maintenance with good communication and agile response to failures, very little divergence from the plan to account for local details. For comparison, I didn't use any of these:

* Cars, because those have millions of units with distributed inattentive owners that can't do stop-the-world refits
* Rockets, because they're disposable and built-and-used serially rather than in parallel
* Hydroelectric dams and skyscrapers and bridges, because those must be 100% bespoke (due to terrain or artistic flourishes) and have no replaceable parts
* Datacenters, because those are either non-safety-critical (AWS et al) or bespoke (ADP et al)
* Hospitals and corporations and governments, because those are 100% bespoke (due to organizational "terrain" i.e. individual leaders)
* Satellites, because those have *no* maintenance
* Oil refineries, because those are 100% bespoke
* Roads, because those have no replaceable parts and no catastrophic cascading failures

Large, high-production-count ships might have worked, things like container ships and warships, but those have very few catastrophic cascading engineering failures - ships that are big enough to be useful (that is, that work like reactors rather than cars) are lost in wars or because they get driven into rocks, not because a single turbine blade failed while the ship was doing a triple reverse backflip over the international date line.

Semisubmersible mobile offshore drilling rigs (i.e. oil platforms) might have been another good comparison. I'll have to go look up stats on those; they look to be in serialized production and with double-digit unit counts per design, and vulnerable to the same kinds of subtle and complex cascading failures that nuclear reactors are vulnerable to (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Ranger#Causes_and_effect...). That said, I don't know how many of them sink, and it looks like they don't operate under anything even vaguely similar to the same safety and reliability regimes that reactors do, nor does the oil industry improve at all in response to failures.

For the purposes of safety and reliability as a function of serialization, nuclear reactors and airplanes are more alike than they are different.

(and, like, really, materials are your argument? They both use turbines, they both use hydraulics, they both care critically about fluid flow, they both require active stabilization and fail deadly if uncontrolled, they both require continuous maintenance from dozens of trained specialists, they both have corrosion and fatigue as primary concerns, etc etc etc.)
It sounds like you're describing edutainment, which I also love, but which is a very different exercise for me than genuinely trying to expedite learning how to do some well-scoped task.

HNs readership grew up in times when where cellphone usage was limited in schools by nature and also by policy (using them in class certainly was never allowed or tolerated). Jailbreaking my phone had nothing at all to do with school and was never something that could be prevented by school policy.

It also feels like you have extremely out-of-the-norm takes on schooling in general. Most people do not want to end compulsory education and don't see the wider benefit in doing so. I primarily see downsides to it, in fact.

> Teachers should have zero power to “discipline” except to expel students from their classroom.

This sounds like dogma based on bias instead of anything factual. Why shouldn't teachers be able to discipline students?

> Teachers are not the arbiters of truth on how effective you are at producing for society, but we sure treat them like it.

No, we have given teachers a purpose and a responsibility, and we generally give them the room and autonomy and authority to carry that out in the best interests of our children.

This might not be universal, but this is not an issue with schooling fundamentally, but with the specifics of schooling in a particular place and time. I hear plenty of nightmare-ish things about schools in the US, but that doesn't mean schools as a concept are flawed. Plenty of other places manage to have decent schools that actually serve their purpose quite well.

> I've worked with some amazing engineers, including multiple whose blog posts regularly get posted here. None of them have egos or consider code review feedback personal attacks.

Same. Nor do I consider code review comments personal attacks, but anything that must be changed for "reasons," must be questioned. Not because it's personal, but because I legitimately want to know and I won't give up until I get a good answer.

> Code review feedback such as the following is all objective, beneficial to the reader, and not worth pushing back against

I'll agree that none of this is probably worth pushing back against, but it isn't objective. Very little is objective, in our industry.

> This logic should live in [other component]

Why? DDD will say one thing, MVC will say something different, though usually they are compatible or can be made to be compatible. You can also subscribe to hexagonal architectures and that might say something different...

There's nothing objective about where code should live, except on a hard drive or some other storage medium. I would argue that code probably shouldn't live on paper. I imagine most of us would agree with that.

> Our RPCs are named as GetFoo, not DetermineFoo

This is a nit. I'd honestly probably ignore it.

> That function name does not make it obvious what this code does, please change it

I'd probably ask for a suggestion because it probably looks obvious to me after staring at the code for so long. That being said, it might be a valid suggestion, especially if the code was refactored, but wasn't renamed.

> This needs a test

I hope nobody ever says this on my code reviews. However, I don't write tests for "obviously correct" code (code where the test implements the logic to test the logic): such as a function like:

function returnTrue(): true { return true; }

If I see code that changes "obviously correct" code, then a test is warranted.

> This is untestable and needs to be refactored to support X

Do you know there is a such thing as legitimately untestable code (or at least, it shouldn't be tested in traditional unit tests)? Usually at the edges of two systems. For example, an API integration can't be tested fully, only the known contract from the other system. Then you start running into Postel's Law ... things get weird. Only if you have some kinds of guarantees with the other system (not usually), would I recommend traditional tests.
