This is Bill.

Bill doesn't need to minify his code, he names things using a single character even in compiled languages.

Bill is a heckin chad who can guess what the code does merely by looking at types and control flow.

Be like Bill

I started coding with TurboBasic. My favorite thing about TB was that you could have variable names of any length but the compiler only used the first two letters - and case insensitive at that. So "Douchebag" and "doorknocker" looked like different variables but were actually the same thing.

Is the Greek question mark a legal identifier for variable names?
