>Having taste is one thing, having the standards to hold yourself to a certain level of quality, that's another thing altogether.

This is a mixup that the author of the article makes as well:

>Copying and pasting code without understanding it.

>Sending resumes and emails that aren’t proofread and edited.

>Asking others to review code without giving it a self review.

>Noticing a quality issue and failing to document or fix it.

These are not issues of taste.
