Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

A junior engineer implemented two features, A and B, using different code review processes. Feature A, reviewed by colleagues with less time and attention, shipped quickly but contained bugs requiring multiple fixes. Feature B was rigorously reviewed by the engineer via a detailed, well-justified process that emphasized smaller commits and thorough testing. It took longer to develop but launched bug-free.
