If no one in the team can understand or maintain his code it doesn't matter if it's because it's way above or below the coding standards of the company.
So the problem is that the other people in the team are too lazy to learn to understand coding techniques that are a little less trivial?!

- wolfgke 10y agoI see that this is a stupid rhetorical question, but I openly say that in many cases it might be a better decision to rather fire the programmers that are not willing to learn new things on the own, even if they are the majority. I openly prefer to work (and do business) with few highly intelligent individuals who always learn new skills on their own than with many people with opposite properties, since I believe this qualitative (in opposite to quantitative) enhancement also reflects in financial gain (thus business advantage).
