Quite right. I've been up to my elbows in code for nearly 20 years and
once I got into the real world I soon found no one pays for elegant
solutions - only ones that work, and quickly.
Thats not to say it's not relevant, yes in some situations where clarity
is key but for the most part it's sod it, lets get it out there. It's
not an excuse for bad coding, design or implentation; just is it
*really* going to make any difference.
I'll stop now. Just rambling after interviewing lots of people and
having to deal with a *really* flaky wireless connection screwing up
everything used across it.
Kev,
