Linus's law

Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow

Fallacies:

  1. Diminishing returns beyond 2 reviewers
  2. Illusion of safety will lead to low ownership

Solutions:

  1. Shiftleft testing by developers.
  2. 2 rounds of mandatory Code Reviews and openness for everyone to leave suggestions.
  3. Crowdsourcing Beta-testing
