Spaces or tabs? How many?
I kinda like 2 spaces myself, but I use 4 because that's what PEP8 says and I try to keep it consistent between languages.
Anything but tabs is retarded.

I use three spaces.
I just like it.
>>54566285
B-but that's not a power of 2!
>>54566250
It's a language. Not a *programming* language though.
4 spaces
But as long as it's consistent it doesn't matter.

Jesus Christ. Tabs guys. TABS!
>>54566187
I don't get why you'd want 4 spaces instead of tabs. Seems retarded

Either way, anyone who doesn't use tab for indentation purposes is a complete moron and shouldn't touch a keyboard in their lives ever again.

you have all of github at your disposal. why would you take such a small sample?
>>54566626
Consistency. Tab size is system or editor dependent while spaces are not.
>>54566683
that's why you use tabs
everyone can set their own tab width...

html/css is turing complete, and therefore a programming language.

>binds tab to insert 2 spaces
What the fuck is the point of using spaces for the people who do this? Just set your tab width to 2 spaces and you're golden.

Spaces make sense for lisps. Since you often put arguments to functions on multiple lines you want them to all start at the same line.
No, making your functions have name length of the form 4n + 2 (for 4 spaces) is not legitimate.

You don't think Javascript is a programming language? Are you retarded?
>>54569287
yes

4 tabs.

html is a "language". so is CSS. it's not a programming language, but it is a contrived way to communicate stuff, which is kind of the definition of "languages".

It literally doesn't matter for lisps, because Emacs enforces the way code should be indented period, and fixing the indentation of a file is literally as easy as opening it up in Emacs and calling reindent on it.
This entire thread is retarded, because either you're arguing that an existing project's coding style should be changed to suit your special snowflake self, or you're arguing that you're too stupid or your editor is too stupid to be able to change indentation styles for a file automatically on read/save.
4 spaces too much
2 spaces is too little
3 spaces just right

disgusting
