I get this same feeling when looking at some of the code people commit the day before a release.

Guess that doesn't apply to places with peer code reviews & continuous integration and continuous delivery/deployment (CI/CD).

It doesn't for release but it does for merging things to the main branch and seeing if it fails or not (cf. “not rocket science”[1]).

The solution to that problem is to release every day. I'm not even kidding.

Probably pushed by some recently rotated manager or new CEO dropped out of a recent acquisition...sometimes the code pushes the system over critically, sometimes it's just a code broken arrow event. Something to tell in the privacy of your next off the record interview or in your biography...
