Based on the article: Using checklists for code review

In general, people are pretty good at the code review process, but it's sometimes surprising what can slip through. A natural consequence of the way our brains look at the world is that it's easy to pay a lot of attention to small details and code style flubs, and completely miss the big picture.

Obviously, not everything is applicable for every change. If the review request isn't making any changes to UI, then skip the first two checklists entirely. If a change is a bug fix, typically don't review it for architecture and design principles.

Put the big stuff first (e.g. architecture). You don't want to work through a ton of small issues before realizing that everything has to be rewritten.

Do a pass through the code for each and every item in the checklist. By only looking for a very specific type of defect, each pass goes relatively quickly, even for large changes. Focu

Surround a heredoc with quotes and you can continue the code on the same line:

    render :status => 404, :text => <<-'EOH' and return unless setup
        article not found<br/>
        I, as a server, have failed<br/>
        https?
        EOH

Quotes also give you more freedom/creativity with the terminal ID:

mtodd

#!/usr/bin/osascript
on run_command(command)
  tell application "Terminal"
    do script "clear" in selected tab of front window
    do script command in selected tab of front window
  end tell
end run_command

tell application "System Events"
  my run_command("cd ~/Projects/nudge")
