Comment Comment by jacobolus You missed various less-direct but often just as effective kinds of questions:“Can you find the mistake here?”“Is there a mistake here?”“Could there be a mistake here?”“Did you test this part?”Better still is to be specific:“What happens if «specific edge case»?”“I did it that way one time, but ran into «concrete problem».”“Your way here works just as well, but doesn’t match our conventions.” parent jacobolus 3 years ago
“Can you find the mistake here?”
“Is there a mistake here?”
“Could there be a mistake here?”
“Did you test this part?”
Better still is to be specific:
“What happens if «specific edge case»?”
“I did it that way one time, but ran into «concrete problem».”
“Your way here works just as well, but doesn’t match our conventions.”
