Looking at code is hard work—in some ways harder than writing it—so most of us have a tendency to avoid looking closely. There is a practice I learned about long ago called desk checking that seems to have gone out of favor in a world of incredibly sophisticated IDEs, but I believe it still has a lot of value.

No devices, no Stack, no Slack, no Reddit. Just you and the code.
