minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•edit-21 year ago Why would I use spaces if I use tabs? To comply with Python’s best practices: https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/ Also, if you work on the Linux Kernel, you’ll see a mix of tabs and spaces: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/block/bfq-iosched.c#L390 Also, it seemd like a huge waste of time hitting the space bar so many times… You use an editor that doesn’t auto-indent?

I assume this was a joke 😁
I use vi without syntax highlighting.
