Good post. I have to ask, out of all the devs you’ve run into, what percentage would you say fall into the “good coders” group?

I’ve been in the programming racket for 25 years now and have only met about half a dozen programmers who know how to produce efficient code. The volume of kludges that get rolled out in mission-critical applications is truly frightening.

In my experience it varies a lot from shop-to-shop, but in the best I've seen it was about half, and in the worst it was as low as 1 out of 10.
