Good that he did not ask what the namespace FoC[^] stands for. 
I think I should call my Padawan and set up some content on that site once more.

You have hit a hot topic there. I have been at war with those elaborate naming and style conventions for a long time.
Hungarion notation is not a bad thing at all, at least if you use it as it was meant to be and not simply as a type prefix. The typical 'we have Intellisense' argument also does not really fit anymore then and Intellisense usually fails me when I need it most. Besides that, I often must use editors that don't have any Intellisense.
Maybe I would not pass a review in your shop, but you would probably pass them in mine. The problem is that if you want to cover every possible case, you end up with a rulebook thicker than the German tax legislation. Been there, done that. With every review some new rules were added and, for my part, I hated it more every time I had to do a review.
The compiler does not care about any of this as long as the code is sytactically correct. Thw whole circus is just for us and I think there are more important things to look at in a code review than spending 90% of the time obscessing over wether or not someone should have captalized a name or not.
We are all intelligent people, so why can't we stick to essentials, keep the rulebook thin and allow a little anarchy within certain boundaries (Nerds and buerocrats avert your eyes). Conventions like using hungarion or not should be agreed upon by the team and then be used accordingly, but it's not the end of the world when someone accidentally or with some intention writes his stuff differently.

Good idea. Ask five programmers and you get twenty opinions. That's exactly how those style bibles with their endless rules come to be.

I have to ask - does your company also place that degree of attention to code clarity, performance, security and extensibility in code reviews?

I call that kind of project a hamster wheel. You can keep running in it as much as you want, but never arrive anywhere. Just look at my post after yours and you know my current hamster wheel.

It is my experience that as far as developers are concerned, the effect is cause by crappy project managers and/or customers who argue internally and can't make up their mind how they want it...

Not always: I worked with one "developer" years ago who got asked to fix bug A.
The fix caused bug B, so that had to be fixed.
The fix for bug B caused bug A, so the same fix was done again.
And again.
And again.

A photon wouldn't experience Zeno's paradox since it doesn't experience time. Only an external observer would - and this is the same with software projects. Developers exist in a state without any concept of time but only external observers (managers, spouses, security guards wanting to lock the building) do.

It always amazes me how so many people can spend so much time fantasizing (they can call it "rationalising", "investigating", or "calculating" as much as they like, but it's still "fantasizing) about simple arithmetic situations that cannot happen in reality.
It's kinda the antithesis of science: in particular, Maths.

Former Formula 1 and motorcycling world champion John Surtees has died at the age of 83.
I met him on several occasions when I was involved in classic bike racing. A true great of motorsport.

Sad news. This dual achievement will probably never be repeated because of the changed nature of the sports. His passing remains totally unreported in Oz which is actually surprising.

I did a few parades, but mostly spannered. We ran a 1968/9 Ducati 250cc.

A friend of mine from Horsell raced a Vic Camp 250 Ducati in the seventies , I did a practice day at Brands on it and have the dubious honour of being lapped by a man called Barry Sheene riding an RG500 - happy days

I knew nobody around here riding Ducatis. The guy I used to go with was from Addlestone though.
