Part of me wonders if the real issue is we don't have an author/editor type system. If the reviewer/editor could just make the nitpicky changes in about the same time it takes to call them out, the relationship might be much more healthy. Things could go back and forth in a much more healthy way.
- t-writescode 2y agoJetbrains SpaceCode (rip), Github and Gitlab all provide that sort of system. I imagine the other ones do, too.
- rileymat2 2y agoSorry, I was not clear. I don’t mean software system, but a culture of operating in that way. Even the language “Code Review” is not one of cooperation, but creates thoughts of a “movie review” where one rates and finds error; not collaboration and mutual editing.
- tremon 2y agoWe do, in a way, but it's not recognized as such. The "author" would be the mythical 10x developer that races to get feature tickets completed, the editors are the ones getting stuck with integrating a pile of stinking hotness into the existing codebase. That kind of setup can work fine if everyone is aware of the others' value, but usually non-technical managers only see the hotness.
