If you write code, you should review code.
That's it.
That's the talk.
There are quite a few "reasons" why developers at various levels find themselves code-review averse: impostor syndrome, time constraints, and area of expertise are a few I've heard. For code owners and project leads, it's a constant battle.
But it shouldn't be! It doesn't have to be!
Let's discuss the benefits of reviewing code, what it is, what it isn't, and how to make it more than the blind rubber stamp approvals we've grown used to. I'll show you my process and things that have helped me cultivate totally awesome code reviewers!
What if I told you that physics makes career paths, colleague interactions, software solutions, and dinner plans all the same?
Intriguing, right?
Newton's laws of motion and Einstein's theories of relativity can help shift how you think about, approach, and execute each of these things. Join me for a spin on "life science" and personal growth you won't soon forget.
