I went to find the video where I first heard him say something about syntax highlighting is for kindergartners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0EF0VTs9Dc&t=899

It's an unfortunate comment since I struggle with word salad most days. Being able to skim and find certain blocks or aspects of a source file is preferable if I can't remember the name of something right away.

I love Douglas Crockford, but maybe that example could benefit from some refactoring. Nesting your functions that deeply is not compelling.
