| @ChristinGorman gave this talk at JavaZone: https://vimeo.com/49484333 It's quite good, short, energetic, enthusiastic, | |
| intelligent, and completely misses the point. | |
| While it's true that the code she produces is much better than the original, and is quite easy to understand; it fails one | |
| critical test. It's not polite. | |
| Polite code is like a well written newspaper article. It allows you to bail out early. A well written article has a | |
| headline, a synopsis, and a set of paragraphs that begin with the high level concepts and get more and more detailed as you | |
| read through the article. At any point you can decide: "I get it! I don't need to read further." Indeed, this is how most | |
| people read newspapers or magazines. The articles are polite, because they allow you to get out quickly. |
