The only thing experienced programmers truely value is profiling- write it, run it, measure it.

Advice is nice and all, but at the end of the day, even that new method to write code, gets to perform on the profiling table of your manager. OO ? Use it, run it against procedural or functional approach, measure it, decide.

Everything else is politics, religion and that one irresponsible guy who gets high on new things and away with it somehow, while touring companys.
