I'm a coder who has worn a lot of hats, from individual contributor to lead engineer to "CTO" (yes, in quotes, make of that what you will!). I've plenty to learn and hopefully some to share as well.
It's gone down over time! At my first software job we had a very high quality codebase and a lot of effort was put into keeping it that way. As a junior, I didn't know how to do that, and code reviews for my code lasted for weeks sometimes, with hundreds of comments and change requests. It could be frustrating, but in hindsight it was good for me.
Now I work at a startup where most of the founding engineers were juniors. Basically our codebase is like what I might have built at my first job if I had been given completely free reign. We have a lot of technical debt slowing us down, and there are some real facepalm moments when looking at the existing code, but we are getting better.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
