The maybe is the strongest part of this article.

In my early days I read a lot of "you should" "this is wrong". But code is an expressive medium, you can do things one way, or do it the other, you can write "amountOfEmployees" or you can write "ne" with an "#amount of employees" comment, either way is absolutely fine and you can use whichever depending on your priorities, tradeoffs or even your mood.

Also I used to obsess over code, (and there's a lot of material that obsesses about code), but after you become profficient at it, there's a cap on the returns of investing time into your codebase, and you start to focus on the product itself. There's not much difference between a good codebase and a marvelously polished codebase, so you might as well use the extra focuse on going from a bad UX to a neutral UX or whatever improvement you can make to the product.
