The thing about NeHe that people seem to forget is that it was always complete garbage. It was just the "only" OpenGL tutorial that included readily copy-pasta'able code. Didn't matter that code was a smorgasboard of bad habits.

I think that applies to C code in general unfortunately, it took me a while to realize that C could actually be a very nice language to write in, but only after reading some of the source of Plan9, OpenBSD, redis, etc. Code you find in C tutorials is usually horrible.
