Style guides Memes

The holy war that never ends. One dev asks if you use camelCase or PascalCase, and the other responds with the only sane answer: following your team's coding conventions. The first guy is basically that colleague who will die on the hill of their personal style preferences while the rest of us just want the codebase to be consistent so we can go home at a reasonable hour.

Ah, the eternal holy war of brace placement. Some programmers lose sleep over whether the opening curly brace belongs on the same line or the next. Meanwhile, Haskell programmers are busy putting semicolons in front of statements like they're driving on the left side of the road, and Lisp is over there doing... whatever Lisp does with those parentheses. The real joke is that we spend hours debating syntax while our actual algorithms still don't work.
