I don't find the mental burden of formatting code to have a positive ROI.
I want to write syntacially-valid code, without worrying about the visual presentation of it. (I want a good presentation, but I don't want to put forth the effort to create it.)
- fragmede 2y agoYeah that's why I fight with how I feel about python so much. In other languages I can just shove the curly bracket in the right place and fix the whitespace later, but Python has whitespace as significant, so I'm forced to fix it/get it right. But that means it's right when I dig a "temporary" script up years later.
- paulddraper 2y agoYou can write a lot (but not all) Python on one line. And my IDE makes it very easy to indent a snippet.
