Thanks @inhuofficial

Interesting, I had not considered asking how they prefer to receive constructive advice, it's a nice angle to look at it. I will probably make use of this.

I also like the point on giving them a heads up first, this might be something I try and see how they respond!

In respect to giving context and a reason why, I totally agree with this. This is something I tend to do, maybe not enough though. I always try to put into prespective how it affects us all as a team, and why it's our responsability as developers to make sure you test and think about the given problem or task.
