Everyone talks about clean code, but where are the real world examples? Javascript, Python, something useful and which inspires that the ideal of clean code is actually possible.
I'm considering the perspective that think clean code is this ideal that can be misused by reviewers to blackball otherwise good code for arbitrary personal reasons.
I know the book Clean Code and I like the ideas in it. I just haven't seen any production examples and I'm considering the idea that talking about clean code is a hand waving way to criticize others contributions without substance.
