One wonders what kind of challenging tasks a programmer who can't even indent code, can solve.
By the way indenting code happens to be the most basic of code review checks.
- tome 8y agoWhy waste human time on what can be done by a machine?
- cmoscoso 8y agoIn my experience, a compiler would be wasting my time interrupting me with errors that are easily catch later, playing with the clojure REPL.
- 200px 8y agoCode indentation has been automated away since like 10 years or ago or maybe even more. Vim, Emacs, Atom, Sublime Text, Visual Studio, Eclipse, IntelliJ, NetBeans can all auto-indent code for you. Combined with linters they can also automate stylistic checks and coding convention. I don't know anyone who indents code themselves. The editor/IDE does it for them. Indenting code is certainly not a code review check. No sane workplace should waste a senior developer's precious time commenting about indentation problems during code reviews. It is a tooling check that is part of CI/CD.
