"Bad news is good news. Good news is no news. No news is bad news."
Essentially, it means:
Bad news (criticism) done right will show you where you need to focus to improve. That's why we upvote those comments.
Good news will give you little or no actionable items to improve.
No news means you are not getting any feedback, which means your progress will stall.
