Amen. I am reading "The Black Swan" by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. If I were an alien observing humans, I would wonder why humans take such pride in matters that are consequences of mere chance. What I am proud of you ask? All these innovative, hard-working people contributing their efforts to this web site.

I disagree. You are not proud/ashamed for every of your action. There are things your are proud of and some your are ashamed of, like wise there are many actions your are neither proud or ashamed. In this case, I am neither proud or ashamed of my actions. I vented something out, so what is the big deal about it. Would that make makes me happy or change any thing in me, nope. Nor it hurts to vent. Many people down voted the message. Would that makes me ashamed or sad, Absolutely not.
I am extremely proud for a feature set we just released. Because it opened many opportunity in the product and customers are excited. Would I have the same feeling or even would I be proud for every code I wrote, absolutely not. Because some of the code is so basic that it does not make one proud, but in the grand schema things, over all I am proud of what I do. Does that mean I am proud of each and every one of my contribution? Nope.

Yusuf mate,
I've seen your comments before in the forum. You are a contributor. And I'm proud of you because of that. Good on you mate.
My comment did not target you and was not personal so please don't take it as such. I do apologise for irritating you. Totally not my intention. On any other day I may do what you did and you may comment on it as I did. That's life. Let's take it easy. (But I recommend to all computer geeks to read The Black Swan nevertheless.)

Not at all. In the contrary if you notice my post, I said, even though who downvoted my post did not get to irritate me. I feel in free speech and you are entitled to your as well. I am cool with it, peace.

I know very that very well, nor did I'd any doubt about that. I don't see any in harm in venting every now and then.
BTW. I did not vote at all for your message. I don't downvote unless it is violates the rules of the form, such as inappropriate post.
