What's up with people being super cutthroat about best coding practices? In my experience it's not very well focused on in schools or especially for self taught devs, so what's with the critical attitude towards bad formatting or indenting, or perhaps less than par code organization? I get it's suboptimal but if someone doesn't know that it's wrong then what's with the fire and brimstone response? Not personal, just something I picked up on.

    @kp15 it's more online communities that I see about talking. Like oh they set up the class this way on their first day? I would fire them immediately, blah blah blah.

    @Crazed well firing is another thing
    But if he's a fresher who's just started coding you could give him a piece of advice as to why it's important what's important.
    The point of having practice of good coding structures is when you look back at your code after 5 years and realise I used to write such shit code how would I now crack it and refactor it and there starts your concern.

    @axed yeah I get the point of good coding practices, it's when veterans get so entrenched in their knowledge they don't realize that others may not be aware
