Is code reviewing good practice?
When the company I work in hired new managers, they offered us to overview someone’s code on every meeting. We have meetings every two weeks, so each time one of developers was to show his/her code on the projector, and others were going to discuss it.

Add a second developer to the team
In my company, I’m the only developer, but we plan on expanding the team by hiring a second programmer. I know there are a lot of implications to that (especially around source control). I’ve Googled a lot, but haven’t found a good tutorial/article on how to grow the team from one to many developers.

How to avoid typo errors, etc?
For the first time I have been coding for an open-source software where all my work gets reviewed before being commited. I understand reviewing work isn’t an easy task, so I don’t like to waste reviewers’ time and effort.

Why can’t the IT industry deliver large, faultless projects quickly as in other industries?
After watching National Geographic’s MegaStructures series, I was surprised how fast large projects are completed. Once the preliminary work (design, specifications, etc.) is done on paper, the realization itself of huge projects takes just a few years or sometimes a few months.

User Stories with design elements in Scrum
We’re implementing a Scrum workflow and I’m trying to wrap my head around user stories, when they’re completed, iterations, etc. One thing we often do is work on a story during an early iteration, get it fully working but “ugly”. We use plain buttons, no images, just the text to show that it’s working the way they should. We show our customer, make sure they are happy with how it’s working, then we usually use images they provide to finish up the design of the feature and complete it.
