Code Review, Comment Review and Safety Review

Some good thoughts on doing code review. In a nutshell, do it. And think about why you do it.

Some thoughts from TechRepublic

Take a moment before you touch the keyboard and ask yourself:

  • Will what I’m about to say solve the problem I’m having with this person or is it just satisfying my need to lash out?
  • Is what I’m about to type a productive comment or am I just feeding my desire to call someone an idiot and, indirectly, make myself feel superior?
  • Am I addressing the right person about this problem? For example, if an ad feed is messing up a page, the blogger has nothing to do with it. If the website is having a problem, the blogger has nothing to do with it. If there is a typo, there is a way to point it out without calling the blogger’s character into question.
