Well, sorta. It's really, really mentally annoying switching between projects where standards are different. For example 80 char limit to 120 char limit takes me at least a month to fully get used to. I agree black is better than the alternative, I agree it has downsides, I'm happy some of the parameters are tunable, but I'm also glad most of them are not. I just want to write software with tools I'm used to.
- jessaustin 5y agoWho is using 120 chars?!?!? I can certainly understand the adjustment difficulties...
- barbazoo 5y agoAre 120 chars bad?
- jessaustin 5y agoMaybe it's because I only have one eye and the resulting slightly reduced width of field, but wide lines drive me crazy. I need to see the whole line without scanning. This was one of python's original appeals to me... https://pep8.org/#maximum-line-length https://pep8.org/#maximum-line-length
- barbazoo 5y agoI can see how that would make it hard for you. I hope your team is accommodating.
- 3pt14159 5y agoI'm like her in that I have eye issues and thus can't use screens that are too large (16" absolute maximum) and even there it needs to be with large font. I wish everyone had stayed with 80 chars so I could have two vertical emacs buffers, but I've sorta gotten used to these ugly wrap around lines. I wish people just used more locals though. I don't see what the problem is and it makes Sentry errors easier to debug.
- jessaustin 5y agoHaving two vertical buffers/terminals side by side in a single screen is so useful!
- rbanffy 5y agoGod made the ASR-33 teletype with 80 columns for a reason.
