I hereby dedicate this thread to stupid coding standards from stupid programming style guides. I'll start.
>> Limit line lengths to 80 characters. There are still many devices around that are limited to 80 character lines; plus, limiting windows to 80 characters makes it possible to have several windows side-by-side. The default wrapping on such devices disrupts the visual structure of the code, making it more difficult to understand.
NO. It's 2009 for fuck's sake, no one is programming through telnet on a goddamn serial modem in DOS. If your editor is fucking up wrapping, FIX IT, or get a better one. Limiting line lengths because of *default* options on editors? Who the fuck is programming that can't configure their goddamn editor?
