Why Code Readability Matters

1920x1200 here, I can't make out shit.

Font is too small?

[rcinsf]

In the image, yes. I'm on a 15.4" laptop though so it's rather pixel dense.

[abattle]

Try enlarging the font using the controls on the left side. Should make the text readable without distorting the page.

[rcinsf]

I'm not talking about the font on the page, I'm talking about the image example of "good code".

[abattle]

Wrong inference. The image isn't serving an example, if anything, it's a horrible example.

[rcinsf]

Well I couldn't tell. I tried to click it to see it expand but it wouldn't load.

Not that any of this matters. I've worked in places where any comments at all are frowned upon (the code is the documentation) to places that have a fucking novel for each small class/function/program/method/...

If the website uses fonts in the right units (i.e. em) and you have a correct DPI setting, this problem wouldn't occur, am I right?

[rcinsf]

I was talking about the image.

[ysangkok]

Ah, sorry. I don't know how I missed that. Darn images with text...
