Nixie and Larry ain't buying my bullshit. Not enough whitespace.

Not enough whitespace.
I got to help a colleague debug a powershell script. It contained six SQL queries.
They were each written in a single line and featured double-nested queries and multi-clause conditionals. He didn't use any aliases either.
I'm sure there's a way to auto-format SQL in some tool, but in the moment, I couldn't remember.
Listen to your cats. Use more whitespace.
Also, if they like it, please pet them for me. Good code reviewers deserve pets.
Hehe. You are preachin to the choir.
In truth, most of my code, particularly my published pieces, looks like a textbook example of self-documentation.
This is because I'm inexpert enough at coding to need the pointers next time I look at my own code.
So if it looks like a kindergarten teacher authored it, I'll probly be able to understand it later.
And thanks! My kitties always want more scratches. :]
