Great episode. Looking forward to the book from Dr. Michaela Greiler
This was an excellent podcast, and it was interesting to hear how much psychology and interpersonal dynamics are involved as well as the nuts and bolts of what the review needs to comprise. Would it be possible to provide a link to the code review checklist that Dr. Greiler referenced during the podcast?
