Funny thing is I used to roll my eyes at the short name thing and figured i and j were fine for loops. Then I went back to code I wrote six months ago and spent ten minutes figuring out what a variable called "t" was even holding. Now it's totalPrice and retryCount, nothing fancy, and I read it twice as fast. Still fine with short names for tiny loops, but anything that lives more than a few lines gets a real name now. Took me maybe a couple weeks before it felt normal instead of slow.
