    Code review is overrated and often poorly executed, most things should be checked automatically (review should still be done though)

    I think part of this is caused by the fact that a lot of people are bad at code reviews so they focus on things that a linter could have told you. Being able to read code isn’t necessarily the same skill as being able to write it – as evidenced by the knee jerk reaction to throw out any coffee we didn’t write ourselves.

    I still create code reviews when I’m working on a project alone because it gives me a different perspective on the changes I’ve made.
