Amazing lecture, thanks for sharing all this resources and insights.
Really great tips, I enjoy the presentation.
I like when she talks about the first comment. It's like she's talking about me
Angie Jone's talk reinforced the importance of having the right mind set in code reviews. Even for beginner coders who might share their code snippets for help is a form of code review. I love her format and her examples.
Incredibly insightful talk. There were so many helpful tips that I want to implement!
Great talk! I love the idea of "You are not married to your code" and will keep it in mind.
Angie I loved your talk, really! I love people who has an ability to unravel complex things into little bits of understandable chunks.. it was so straight to the point, funny, and practical! Thank you so much
Angie, great talk! Your ideas of the separating oneself from the product when taking critiques, reminds me of a point I heard that, in school, artists have their project reviewed critically and engineers simply get graded on whether it accomplished the goal or not. What is your take on this? Do you have a background (or have examples of someone) in art or music or any other where your work was reviewed for qualitative value that prepared for code reviews? Can coding in public help hobbyist or students hone these skills? Thank you!
Wow this was a really amazing session with Angie Jones. I learnt a lot, Especially commandment number 6. I have always been afraid about reviewing other people code because I feel I'm not good enough to contribute, well I know it's more than that and there's so much to gain from reviewing others code
Please where can I get all "the 10 commandments of navigating code review " listed out? I want to keep it handy. Thanks
It's always great to be reminded on how to give feedback and practice empathy. So appreciating this talk on code review, thank you Angie!
That was a fantastic talk! Letting go of the code when it's submitted as well as learning to support people both senior and junior to you are so key. Thank you!
Great session, my favorite commandment was:
Thank you, Angie
I love how Angie not only put data in this talk but has also outlined solid examples of what she's talking about with corresponding visuals. This talk is 🔥
These are great tips! Going to send this video to my roommate, we were talking about how he could be less blunt with his code reviews of the junior developers on his team and this was spot on to our conversation.
Amazing talk, Angie, and great advice.
