I completely agree. Who cares if black is ugly? It's a standard which is easy to automate. Want a better standard? Make it. Until then black works.

- Drakar1903 7y agoThings in this industry are divided into those that get complained about and those that get forgotten.
- afiori 7y ago> Want a better standard? Make it. That is what this post is advocating for, his own fork of black.
- fastball 7y agoYes, but in this case it was all bark with no bite. The author has made 0 commits to his fork since forking (in Feb).
- afiori 7y agoFrom other comments it looks like the author can be quite vitriolic, so it is possible that a lot of the criticism he receives here is fair in tone. But to me this looks a bit premature, the article sounded like a declaration of intent (especially regarding refactoring the code per se). In particular I understand that there are wrong ways to complain (and possibly the author is guilty of them), but this specific blog felt over the top and emotional (something I sympathize after unrelated experiences in failing to understand how to organize an Poly/ML project) but not unfair.
- fastball 7y agoI personally think Black has the most beautiful style of the Python formatters. For example, I really dislike yapf's way of doing things.
