Can we please just settle on 120 columns as the new 80? It would make things so much more reasonable. I have to agree going wider than 120 makes things harder

I have to agree going wider than 120 makes things harder to read. 80, no, there is no way I'm going to voluntarily follow that standard - I will have to be forced into it, and I won't like it.
- hinkley 6y agoI recall deciding quite a long time ago that I was going to do 100 columns and not ask anyone. It was with great amusement that I noticed, not very long after, that JetBrains added/moved the default gutter warning to either 100 or 120 columns. That said, I do 4 space indents and 100 columns, not either/or. 2 space and 100 is an invitation to excessive nesting over decomposition. If you insist on 2 spaces then I’m afraid I’m going to insist on 80 columns (and that you finally get off your ass and learn how to code).
