Said on Slightly Caffeinated

“We went and made a config file that lives in the root of the repo that has basically glob paths for must-have human review, for like auth and migrations … And then if there is anything that needs human review, that blocks it from auto-approving the pull request, because then that means a human has to have the final approach.” — TJ Miller, Slightly Caffeinated

“If you're going to call something out, validate that you can actually point to the thing that you're calling out. And if you can't, then just drop it. So just that call out increased the correctness of the review probably 15 or 20 points.” — Chris Gmyr, Slightly Caffeinated

“Adversarial by nature is adversarial. It's built to find something no matter what. … And then now this little itty bitty change has exploded into five, 10 different commits … your scope has blown up 10x, your PR has blown up 10x. … Why can't we just ship it?” — Chris Gmyr, Slightly Caffeinated
