We need to be careful when we look back at stuff we've done in the past. We don't compare it to the standards we had back then, but to the standards we hold in the present. We also forget what our skill and experience levels were at the time. What has happened in the past is what it is. The good, the not so good, and even the really bad. I agree that we should not dwell on it. But I don't think we should spend an ounce of effort trying to deny it happened or hide it from others (they will find it anyway). It happened. Accept it. Learn from it. Move on. If you're working on something today that you don't feel meets your standards, don't release it. Fix it so it does, remembering that nothing is ever perfect.
