A comment on The QT Timebomb. Parent comment
"There are 2 hard problems in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-1 errors."

Some choose short variable names that they can type fast (this might be correlated with vi programmers).
Others choose long variable names that are more descriptive (this might be correlated with emacs programers).
Personally I chose the latter, because copy-paste is easy, and ambiguity can be confusing.
But ambiguities are great fun for making puns and dadjokes.
