This blog post by Will Barrett advocates self-reviewing code before opening pull requests, explaining how shifting context (e.g., changing diff views, taking a short break, or using different editor themes) helps authors spot bugs, typos, debugging artifacts, and design issues; it recommends writing tests, experimenting with functionality, and asking questions to improve code quality.
