I agree that variables names should be short, but not "as short as possible". They should be as short as possible while remaining unambiguous and avoiding loading short-term memory. "allOutstandingOrders" does not look to me like a long variable name. > Make your code as terse and dense as possible I really hope I never get to work with any code you've written. > Make your variable names abbrevations or acronyms, like instead of 'convertInt', call it 'ci' I'm starting to think this comment is satire now. If I have to read the comments on a function or variable to figure out what it does then my productivity is going to be absolutely kneecapped if I'm a newcomer to your project.
