The other day I wrote a blog post that touched on an open issue in a module that Dave Cross maintains. After I wrote it, I wondered if the post might have annoyed him, but I figured that:

he didn’t actually write the code in question
the issue had been around for a while
once you see enough of these bugs in older code, hearing someone else talk about it is not going to keep you up at night

Then he:

merged my patch
came up with a better solution
wrote a blog post about that

Problem solved!
