Code reviews are important. Unfortunately, no-test-text guy convinced his whole team that he was right, and I wasn't able to block it. I'd scheduled a meeting to try to get the wider org to adopt a more sensible standard, but then there was a mass layoff 🤷

The other guy with the bad messages is at a tiny startup where they've laid off almost everyone, and the other 2 guys don't want to make waves. The CEO is big on "just ship it" (and also "why are there bugs in production? this is unacceptable!!")
