What a terrible environment. Fear from humiliation does not make better code. Code reviews, instruction, and collaboration help make better code.

- tomjen3 14y agoCode reviews are just opportunities for institutionalized bike-shedding. And in cases like this ensures further humiliation. Instruction can work, but it requires a smart programmer who can do it right. Collaboration can work but it reduces the speed you can think at to how fast two people can communicate instead of how fast one person can think. And no, I don't have good solution (other than to ensure you only hire the best people).
