Really interesting idea of not always avoiding "clever code." There are many occasions when choosing a more complex alternative can be beneficial.
It's over a week late but I have a new newsletter out! Read 'write the most clever code you possibly can' with your tongue firmly in your cheek, and because it's all about how why you it's good to write code that nobody else can understand buttondown.com/hillelwayne/...
Write the most clever code you possibly can
Clever code is a bad idea 95% of the time, this is the other 5%
