Spaces are cancer tbh.
Ugh.
Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment. Anything else is inconsiderate and inflexible. It's not hard, people.
Spaces win in python?
How about an IDE that converts tabs to spaces.
We're a compression company.
A mix depending on what I need to do.
Any person who advocates tabs over spaces, changes their mind the moment they have to command line debug a java server in a 80x40 window on Solaris.
Why? You cant change the spaces equivalent to a tab in Solaris?
OK true... but when the admins have locked down everything on the pre-production server its a nightmare.
