How to Review Your Own Code Like a Senior Engineer

Would You Approve Your Own Work?
Before the review, before the merge, there's a moment only you see.

Not the GitHub comments. Not the tests.
Just the pause.
The re-read.
The question: "Would I trust this if it weren't mine?"

This isn't about perfectionism.
It's about presence.
It's about the kind of developer you become when no one is watching.

I wrote this post for those of us who care about more than shipping code.

It's not just about the code.
It's about the clarity behind it.
The character within it.
