Most code I look at these days is a mess, regardless of language. It can be depressing. I've decided to retire and forge artisan hammers (for which I can charge crazy prices, like some hipster barista), since people seem to love hitting themselves in the face while refusing to learn how to stop hitting themselves in the face, mostly due to laziness or habit. N.B. some actively enjoy moaning, so it's just a substitute for recreational drugs. Be warned, many of these hammer lovers will try and drag you down with them. Lest we forget, please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
