We Used to Review Every Line Before Production

Description

A Simpsons still of Grandpa Abe Simpson sitting on a tree stump on a green hill, beige sweater and cane, telling a story to Bart, Milhouse (blue hair), Martin, and another blond kid under a blue sky with a tree and clouds. White impact-font caption: "WE USED TO REVIEW EVERY LINE OF CODE BEFORE IT WENT INTO PRODUCTION," with a small imgflip.com watermark. The grandpa-Simpson "back in my day" format treats thorough pre-prod code review as a campfire legend—the kind of claim teams still make while diffs, velocity, and agent-written PRs have outgrown any human reading every line.
