This new to me as well. I am very curious what situations people are in where they don't/can't wait for a PR into master.

If you reading this do this, I'd be interested in hearing what the benefit of pushing to master is for you. Is it purely for velocity? And if so why is velocity that important?

Coming back to my comment having finished the article in full.

I wonder how the author's code base will develop using a weekly reflection on the code committed instead of PRs. I'm not sure how well their process will handle someone's poor design decisions. My experience has been that poor decisions tend to stay in code once they are there, and especially as more things become dependent on those decisions. Not that reviews will catch everything, but that second set of eyes can go a long way.
