wide stance posted:"Once it goes thru the compiler it's all the same" is not the point. It's about maintaining (adding functionality, fixing bugs, etc.) source code with hosed up formatting and spending a bunch of time and mental anguish updating it.

I'm sorry but the tabs vs spaces gag was the best thing to happen all season and if you disagree get out.

I think they wrote in the tabs/spaces thing because they knew nerds on the internet would argue about that and not about how (comparably) bad the episode was. That said, if you use spaces or put opening braces on a new line you are objectively wrong.

The absolute best thing about this episode is that it has caused people to argue about spaces/tabs and brace placement unironically while simultaneously arguing that the episode was stupid. Just A+ poo poo.

Episode was good. I didn't mind the richard subplot but then again I don't have a problem with cringing so hard I feel like I'm going to collapse inside myself. Dude kills it.

Loved the episode, and the tabs vs spaces argument was too close to home for me. They should have expanded it into indentation depth too, but I guess reality is just too crazy for TV.

People who do it the wrong way probably saw it in a public toilet once and started copying it, without realising that this was just the work of some lazy janitor who didn't give a poo poo. It's kinda ridiculous that it's even a thing.

Gleb blatantly disregarding the company coding standards by using spaces over tabs would actually get your rear end fired irl. Not definitively, but would be a clear strike against you.

Not definitively, but would be a clear strike against you. Depends. If he was writing a completely separate service or tool where he is the sole owner, there are companies that would just shrug and let him code in a way that is most efficient for him. But yeah, if he had to contribute to shared code and his attitude was "I'll do whatever, who cares?", then yeah, that's an rear end in a top hat move that won't get you far.

Spacing is a huge thing with programmers. I've gotten into little spats about tab spacing in Sublime, I prefer larger spacing vs my friend who likes it smaller (and more cluttered, and ugly.,askjfdkladjd). I think the default is 4 which is nice but he changes it to 2.

2 spaces are enough to denote a nested block, anything longer looks silly to me.

Its me, I care. Although in that case the issue was less tabs v spaces and more "lets give different functions the same name because i forgot that i had already used that name for a different function in an earlier version of the script" and "lets not use version control but heres 20 different php files named script_v1, script_v2, etc" outsourcing development and not having anyone at your company in charge of managing foreign devs is bad

Programmers get paid well but hate every aspect of the job that necessitates them getting paid well. I have to work across 3 projects using 7 different languages and every coder/file has different formatting and stuff. It's academia so some of the files go back to like 2005 with long-retired authors but if you required consistency across everything you'd go insane first. My eye twitches when people put 5 newlines between every Python def then over in Scala their methods are all in one huge blob, but just gotta suppress and move on. Diffs are hard to read when every bit of whitespace gets highlighted.

The point in having coding standards is for everyone and everything to be on the same page. That dude writing the tool that no one else is going to use isn't going to stay at his job forever and when he leaves someone else is going to have to take over it. If you let people "do whatever" they want on their niche tools/scripts then you're going to end up one day hiring new people to take over roles and they're going to spend some time thinking "what the gently caress does this undocumented class even do" and waste time figuring it out. I know spaces vs. tabs isn't the same thing as having consistent naming schemes and documentation, but it's still part of the coding/style guide. I personally set my text editor to convert tabs into spaces and to read tabs as spaces for my own poo poo, but if I'm contributing to other people's poo poo then I use whatever format they call for because it's part of the job.

I had to start programming in grad school and it was the most soul drenching experience imaginable. I gained 2kg and started drinking almost daily, until the project was finished. The fact that I was actually good at it made it somehow even more depressing. People should cut programmers some slack. It's a miserable husks of a real human existence. Let them rant and blow off some steam from time to time.

Oh yea, you always follow whatever the coding standard is for where you work, no one would argue that. Badly named methods/variables is far more egregious than tab and space stuff though.

He was being pretty reasonable with Gleb since him using spaces instead of tabs would mess up source control. Then he goes full retard with that bartender.
