Was going to post basically this.

We use Visual Studio Code and a beauty plugin which fixes all whitespace issues.

If you're using 2 space indentation that would be 4 indentations. Or she was just doing it to test what she heard.

Also what the hell is the curly braces argument? The type of braces you're using depends on the language you're coding in. They're not interchangeable like tabs and spaces.

code:

void SomePeopleCode() {
    LikeThis;
}

void OtherPeoplePrefer()
{
    ThisInstead;
}

So how long until we get a character or storyline based on Elizabeth Holmes?

Forever, I'd guess, because the show has already been under a ton of fire for basically accurately representing the gender ratio of the tech industry and some of its lovely attitudes about women.

If they introduce a billionaire female CEO who is a total fraud, the actors won't be able to leave their houses for three years.

Bachman feels like kind of a disappointing character this season, at least to me. He still has a lot of good one-liners ("Way to use your dick, Jared!" got a big laugh from me), but he's devolved from a charming rear end in a top hat to just an rear end in a top hat. Him bleeding Bighead's $20 million dry really drove that point home.

Yes, he is. Mark Cuban literally got rich putting radio on the internet, and has been selling all sorts of ridiculous three comma swag since before Silicon Valley was on air.

Like many things on this show, they didn't even have to change reality for it to be funny.

You left out the best part: Mark Cuban actually is a part owner of a tequila company and played himself on Entourage to help promote the brand. No clue if the tequila is any good, though.

CamelCase can start with either an upper or lower, though camelCase is more common than CamelCase.

At least it's not Hungarian Notation. I'll burn a fucker if I see another iCounter or strFirstName.

He's non-threatening, calm, collected, intelligent, a good listener (and conversationalist), and maintains eye contact. It's also an entertainingly useful plot point for a television show that he *FUCKS*.

priznat: Jul 7, 2009; Let's get drunk and kiss each other all night.

Jared seemed pretty up on the PUA lingo re: "negging", hmmmm.

That was such a great callback joke, just killer.

I got introduced to this show a week ago and binged the gently caress out of it (I work in hardware engineering, the box stuff was especially great)

Also just set your text editor to convert tabs to spaces so you use the tab key and get 4 spaces. I originally got into using spaces just because I would have to open up code using other people's editors and they'd have their tab widths set all sort of loving nonsense like 8 character width so just using spaces kept it consistent.

I kind of wonder about the girls Jared brings home though, considering he's bringing them to a cot in the garage, and he tried to force the only other two women he knew to be friends just because they were women.

Cabbages and VHS: Aug 25, 2004; Listen, I've been around a bit, you know, and I thought I'd seen some creepy things go on in the movie business, but I really have to say this is the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me.

One reason a consistent whitespace strategy among teams is important is because depending on the code review process* you're using, if the text editor you're using reformats all the whitespace to be different than what's already in the repository, then it can look like every line in the file has changed and needs to be reviewed. Github has some workarounds but I think it's okay to be somewhat anal on this (not to your girlfriend, clearly).

* I realize many of you are probably saying "code review! Hah! Spoiled unicorn bullshit", and I am shaking my head softly...

But the code looks different when other people open it, I can't have that!

HTML ignores tabs and treats them as spaces usually. You have to use code tags in order for your tabs to show up.

This show is great when it's engineers ribbing each other and arguing about code.

It's really bad when it's Richard highjinks like slamming his nose on the desk or tripping over a wire at a mom-joke. More Gilfoyle, less Richard and Big Head.

It was my favorite ep of the season , specially all the Jared sex poo poo though gilfoyle is the best and his geek squad bit killed me last episode.
The endings are usually tight but bigheads line was perfect.
