What (if anything) helped you feel comfortable sharing your code? I often hear learners say they don't want others to see/review their code because they think their code sucks.

Yes, and it's fantastic! I'm trying to create conditions for learners to feel comfortable sharing code for review in our next round of R4DS.

I think the Recurse Center's built a great set of social rules for a friendly environment of code-sharing

Thank you for sharing that one. A really great thing to avoid "feigning surprise" as well as the others on the list of don'ts.

The feigning surprise one kills me every. single. time. Of *course* there are things people don't know - all of our learning paths are unique.

I'm certain I've done this myself too so it's great to see it in black and white to remind myself. Although there are things that are inexcusable not to know IMHO, that are completely central to a job. It's a tangent to the OP but I've experienced it enough to warrant a mention.

For example, I've met & worked with people who claimed on their CV that they know, e.g., how to code in Python & use git and in fact they admitted to me they didn't & asked me to train them and/or do their work for them. It's exhausting saying no & working in such an environment.
