> I've always assumed peer review is similar to diff review. Where I'm willing to sign my name onto the work of others. If I approve a diff/pr and it takes down prod. It's just as much my fault, no?

No.

Modern peer review is “how can I do minimum possible work so I can write ‘ICLR Reviewer 2025’ on my personal website”

The vast majority of people I see do not even mention who they review for in CVs etc. It is usually more akin to a volunteer based, thankless work. Unless you are an editor or sth in a journal, what you review for does not count much for anything.

> No. [...] how can I do minimum possible work

I don't know, I still think this describes most of the reviews I've seen

I just hope most devs that do this know better than to admit to it.
