That wasn't my answer.

My answer to "show your work" was "No." I am not going to go through my code, and show a bunch of supporting evidence for a casual comment, in which I have exactly zero investment. I really don't care that much what people think of me. I was just sharing my personal experience. If you guys want to write me off, then knock yourselves out.

"No" is a complete sentence. What part of "No" didn't he understand?

Have a great day!

An interesting answer to literally "Just what kind of evidence do you suppose they could have? - Showing actual improved products and features. Showing actual code. etc."

> "No" is a complete sentence. What part of "No" didn't he understand?

See above. After pointing this out you immediately started down the path of "why didn't you looko at my profile and followed the link to my github".

Not even close. The opposite even. Read more carefully.

> For 5 million comments like yours I haven't seen a single one with the old code vs. the new code. I understand that not all code is public that way, of course, and I don't mean to put you on the spot personally. But where are all the open source projects that now do the same with better error handling using less resources?
