Just call it “committing bad code”. LLM autocomplete aside, I don’t see how reviewing own code can happen without either a split personality, or putting enough time that you completely forgot what exactly you were doing and have fresh eyes and mind.
If person A committed code that looks bad to person B, it just means person A commits bad code by the standard of person B, not that person A “does not review own code”.
Maybe it’s a subjective difference, same as you could call someone “rude” or you could say the same person “didn’t think before saying”.
- solaire_oa 1y agoPerson A as can commit atrocious code all day, that's fine, but they still need to proofread their MR/PR and fix the outstanding issues. The only way to see outstanding issues is by reviewing the MR/PR. Good writers proofread their documents.
- strogonoff 1y agoI just don’t see reading your own stuff as a different activity from writing. Generally, there is the author, and proofreader is a dedicated role.
