It's probably time to stop recommending Clean Code @ Things Of Interest (qntm.org)

Seeing that Uncle Bob is making a new version of Clean Code I decided to try and find this article about the original.

IMO it would be best to present code that fits in a single file to people on the net and refactor it to their liking while keeping the same functionality, then let others rate the style and pick a few characteristics. Then the code can be ranked by the different characteristics to obtain the top 5 or so "cleanest" coding styles.

I feel it's worth doing an entire study instead of relying on what one dude says is clean code. Let the people speak.
