samir, actually the xkcd top hat guyI will never understand why we looked at modern programming, saw that there is a good bit, which is programming, and a bad bit, which is code review… and decided to automate the good bit at the expense of having to do a lot more of the bad bit.
Those of you who like code review: I recommend shifting left, pairing with your colleagues (especially non-programmers such as product designers or testers), and writing lots more test cases. I think you’ll enjoy it a lot.
Dragan Stepanović@samir Hey Samir, I love what you're saying :)
@d_stepanovic We’ll see if anyone listens though. 😛
Barney Dellar (he/him)@samir @d_stepanovic You might be preaching to the choir… I’ve taught people how to pair and how to mob, and I’ve introduced it on teams I’ve been in, and that’s worked. Just telling people, though? I haven’t seen that work very often.
It worked on me, though! I heard about mobbing at a conference, and decided to try it with my team.

@BarneyDellar @d_stepanovic In a few more years, once the child is shelf-stable, I would love to start training again. I miss it.
