Working Code Podcast - Episode 188: Code Review Nuance

From an academic standpoint, it seems that there should be one unified way in which to review code on an engineering team. A review process has a desired outcome; and, there should be a standard set of steps that help us achieve said outcome. In reality, however, code reviews are heavily nuanced. The depth of effort that we put into a review often depends on the state of the company, the individuals involved, and the type of changes being made within the Pull Request (PR). On today's show, we dig into that nuance; and, try to articulate some of the decisions that we use when we're reviewing other people's code.

All that and more on this week's show:
