Call me old faction or what, but semicolons and 4 spaces indentation, I'm off the grid, so long for so called "Standard" JS.

- andrewmcwatters 10y agoI agree. Furthermore, it is really deceitful to use the name "Standard" when it's far from it. For years this was not the standard way of writing JavaScript. I get that standards change. However, this isn't even the way most companies write JavaScript. The way I interpret this: some group of developers thought it would be a good idea to hijack the word "standard," and wedge this particular new style into the concept. It just isn't standard. It's as absurd as having a company called "Blue Shine" and selling only green colored cleaning products. At least be honest about it. Call it something else, like "Colonless," since that's the most obvious thing that sticks out when using this style.
- TAForObvReasons 10y ago> it is really deceitful to use the name "Standard" when it's far from it. reminds me of the debacle around "Standard Markdown", now called "CommonMark"
- Semiapies 10y agoIt's nobody's Standard except its partisans.
