These discussions are why I just stick to whatever the broader community decides. Like gofmt, eslint, etc.
Why waste my time bikeshedding over bs like tabs or spaces or this or that? I’m just trying to build awesome stuff, not bikeshedding.

- qwery 3y agoThe broader community, unfortunately, often overlook the needs of those who don't fit neatly into the same box as the decision making members of the "broader community" do. Did you read the article?
- moomoo11 3y agoYeah I did read it. I’m just saying I choose to not care that much about these discussions. Pick a standard or some customizations that work for the team, and deal with it. But having discussions or debates on it that last more than 5 min is a waste of time. For people like the author, their team should just accommodate him. If they can’t then unfortunately he would have to write code however he’s comfortable and run a custom linter. And I disagree that either spaces or tabs are better. I don’t care, that’s my view.
