Grundeir7258yCase and point, whilst trying to read your rant, I spent a few confused seconds trying to figure out what 'target it emid' meant.

Because the developer that wrote it wanted to write itemId but could not risk capital letters with the service. 😛😛

@Jase I keep reading that "you're yes accross" instead of "your eyes accross". If you aren't doing camel case, ffs just do snake case

Traser10528y@Grundeir I know most modern developers don't care... Well I am 19 but I like the old school way :) in my opinion it's the same as people learning frameworks instead of how computers work etc. I am fine with libraries and frameworks but most people don't know what they are actually doing (most people at my school don't even know what a byte is).

SHA-25614478y@Traser Even when using a 4 GB thumb drive using underscores to increase readability won't matter... Readability > Size

Traser10528y@SHA-256 well that's an opinion. I prefer to think about memory and data usage. We can save tons of data just by removing useless characters.
The size of the code they used to bring the Apollo-11 to the moon is almost smaller than most files simple text editors produces. That says enough right?

I really hate api response variable names like this. I mean why type "targetitemid" when "target_item_id" is so much more readable?
