Do You Take Criticisms Of Your Work Personally?

A fascinating thread on HN raises this question. So I pose this to people in this industry? What do you think?

I think criticism makes you better and I welcome it, e.g. Andrew Lanning: "No One With Any Industry Integrity Suffers This Clown [me] Or His Circus Any Longer" or "Unmasking IPVM" - "John Honovich Should Be Cancelled." or IPVM Pricing Is Way Out Of Line Compared To Other Corporate Memberships. Feel free to share other examples, I was able to quickly find those 3.
