Hungarian notation had a purpose to it, but then they went and did it wrong accidentally (there's an old Joel on Sw article about it, but I'm not linking it) - and in the example this is all over the place - not to mention C macros ooofffff
But yes the mix of that plus camel case, make things confusing

- AtlasBarfed 2y agoDid fogbugz ever hit it big? Joel's blogs are legitimate gold and almost timeless (AIpocalypse tbd). But they just did bug tracking and other jira type stuff in MS land, right?
- canucker2016 2y agonot that I know. They also did Trello. No idea if they got paid big for spinning off/selling Trello. There was also some vncviewer/rdp client-type thing (copilot) which was more consumer-friendly - relatively quick install/didn't spew files/garbage all over your disk/registry. He also co-founded stackoverflow, so I thought there was a big payday when stackoverflow got bought.
