There is a chapter called ‘ninja code’, which is full of terrible advice. A small example.
> The ideal name for a variable is data. Use it everywhere you can.
There is one small comment at the top of the chapter, which says ‘Irony detected’. Is there really a whole chapter written Ironically? It would be very easy to read this and think it was real advice.
(And if it is real advice, and I’m completely misunderstanding, then I can’t possibly recommend this book).
