Ask HN: Is looking at the code slowing us down?

I know this scares many people, but you can control things with QA, evals, ship quality gates and so on... I know we might have more bugs in the short term, but is not looking at the code the right direction we should go for the long term?

Several important developers switched to this new idea, the ones who work in production grade stuff (one example is Antirez, who just wrote some tweets that inspired this post)
