DRHAX3414497yBut then he fucks you up when your code is over xx lines and you try to merge it with Linux.

I think Torvalds said that while he was writing the Graphic driver for Linux. he didn't care about code quality, things went messy, now you see..

man i hate these stupid quotes ... just because Torvalds said it doesn't mean it's worth anything

It's not either/or, they're linked. Bad data structures will require workarounds in ugly code, and vice versa.

True . without a good data structure even if you write good code it'll be always bad and messy . Good data structure save time and lines.

ingipingi447yDon't good programmers automatically write good and structured code? I've experienced so many bad programmers forcing structures and patterns on code, just because that's what they learned in school. But the result being UML hell.
I believe the best approach is always to keep things simple. If a pattern is really needed, then fine, but don't force it. -
@lazyDev have you even read Linus's code quality standards document?
