Yes they do. The issue doesn't really exist anymore. Languages formatters will fix up formatting regardless of environment and user preferences.

I think this was a issue back with dumb source control and comparison tools. I remember looking at source safe or svn history files trying to figure out what code actually changed because the diff tools at the time were too dumb to ignore whitespace changes. I was also a new developer back then and part of the too dumb bit of the equation. Actually I do not even remember for sure if I had a diff tool or it was just good ol mark1 eyeball. I do remember a couple senior devs kept switching parts of the code base between their preferred formats. Ugh this is coming up on 20 years ago.

Editor's and tools have come a long way. Developers are pretty much the same though.

Number of spaces in a tab is not universal. Different editors have different defaults. If you have a dozen programmers with 8 editors and everyone using their editor default for tabs it is havok.

4 spaces is 4 spaces.

StackExchange has a bunch of SO like sub sites with a ton of different topics. There is one for Christians as well and a prominent mod there is also leaving over CoC changes (these still have not been released).

So the story here is taking a photo of your screen instead of ctrl-alt-print screen (takes just the active window)? Yes I think a lot of people lack enthusiasm about their tools. I think men i work with in general spend a lot more time fiddling with the features their tools make available to them. No different than when my girlfriend wants to use the table saw. She hasnt any idea what that junk on the top does so she takes it off then pinches the plywood while ripping it and gives herself a nice bruise across her hip.

The first spinster on sqlites homepage is Mozilla. I wonder how long their sponsorship lasts? I habe been to a few Mozilla events and they normally strike me as a very progressive sjw type lot.

This seems a bit too traditional to be to their liking...
