I accept that I have a number of beliefs that are considered heretical to other programmers. = Should be for testing equality, not assignment. Null should equal null in SQL. Whitespace is a bad delimiter.
But my most heretical belief is that the only thing that should be case-sensitive is passwords. Any system that is case-sensitive by default will eventually break your heart about it in the stupidest possible way.
- tobyhinloopen 7y agoEverything should be case sensitive, except things that shouldn’t. Case-insensitivity by default everywhere will be a pain.
- MrLeap 7y agoI agree (with pedantic caveats not worth mentioning) with everything you've listed, unless you're using the regex view of what whitespace is and think the \t character is a bad delimiter, well then, that's where I draw the line.
