@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber @KimPerales I'll bet $100 the incidents would have happened even with sign off. No one wants to review slop.

@KimPerales@toad.social @deech @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber not a matter of “if” it would happen in my mind, but when.

Human review is a limited control gap in the system of pushing changes to a production system and has limited utility in preventing errors.

Most empirical studies I’ve read seem to agree that human code review has a marginal effect on error rates that disappears of the reviewer had read a couple hundred SLOC in the last hour.

CEOs aren’t engineers and most software developers aren’t either, IMO. Liability is very screwy in our industry.

Making developers sign off on changes they can’t even hope to vet is a disaster waiting to happen.
