Why should this be at the editor level? There should be a linter that applies all these stylistic formatting changes to all files automatically. If the developer’s own editing tools or personal workflow have a chance to introduce non-standard styles to the codebase, you have a deeper problem.

I listed two examples of things right in my post.

The problem is, in Linux once you know how things work, most things are pretty easy. In Windows, even when you know how things work, if you want to change your system at all you’re fighting the OS the whole way.

For example, in Linux it’s trivial to set up my notifications to be in the bottom middle, except when I’m coding to have them in the top right, with various hotkeys to manage them. Or to have custom window layouts. Or to do anything, every part of the stack is easy to change. On Windows you just get a blob and it assumes everybody wants it to work the same way.

That’s not merch, that’s the Veil of Veronica. Very significant catholic story/artifact. The story is that when she wiped the blood and sweat off of Jesus his face appeared on the cloth. You’ll find depictions of this in most old catholic churches and many paintings

Weechat is the only other irc client I recommend

It wouldn’t if it had more candela. But low lumens and low candela means it ain’t doing shit past 20 feet.

I think he means more like an arms length or enough to walk around it. Not a full on yard.

Not at all. I have lived in two different time zones where I’m dealing with subzero Celsius temperatures for several months of the year.

Yes I know that water does certain things at the “nice” numbers in Celsius. Who cares though? What’s so special about water? I’m not boiling water that often, and in my life I’ve never checked the temperature of water when doing so or have had to care about specific numbers then. Of all substances why does water get to be the one we base everything around?

That is not what I mean. I mean in daily life, most temperatures will fall in that range. That does not mean every day you see them all.

As an American I don’t know what you’re talking about, aside from the UK most of Europe has amazing food, and the wine there is so much better and cheaper

That one is fun because you concede most of it but then win an argument that fahrenheit is better (Celsius and fahrenheit are both arbitrary but at least fahrenheit scales itself so the range most people use daily, weather, is 0-100)

This is why piracy is a net positive for society.

No, it’s the lack of support in web APIs. Every api is based on width and height, viewport width, viewport height. Nothing allows you to find the angle of the display, rotate DOM elements to align, wrap based on diagonal boundaries etc.

Not true at all. Many video games don’t even have save files. And at the very best, the save file is just a side-effect even if it exists. That’s like saying a car is “just” two recliners and a loveseat.

If you are so bad at using a computer you can’t open a PDF, then you won’t notice the difference between windows and linux

So when I type the word “sink” I’ve used the sin() function?

1. A single separator is better than a choice of separators to mean the same thing.
2. A space is not as apparent in a large log of data as a capital T
3. Human language is not as strict as a programming language. There is a reason you see people still using “alot” and “a lot”. That just proves it’s easy to overlook and commonly happens.

This is the most junior developer comment I’ve seen in a while.

Nobody that’s competent thinks that’s shit is hard. That’s not the point.

The point is, it makes it easy to make mistakes. Somebody might see all of one type of strings, assume that’s the format, and forget to enclose the thing in quotes, causing mysterious bugs years later when a differently created date filters into the system. You might have a regex error, you might split incorrectly, you might make a query that works the wrong way and gives an incorrect aggregate, and none of that is due to lack of skill. It’s due to not knowing it’s the rfc standard, not the iso. It could be due to not even realizing the rfc allows for that or is different.

Software engineering in practice is not about making sure there is at least some way for people to use your library/standard/pattern. It’s about making sure the way to do it that’s most intuitive/obvious is also foolproof, easy, and efficient. Adding the space makes debugging harder and adds footguns which is exactly what good software engineers want to stay away from. Otherwise we’d all be writing in assembly. But since you aren’t, maybe you are the one with a skill issue. Either that or you really misunderstand this field.

I definitely don’t agree that the RFC is easier to read, the two numbers can appear to be one at a quick glance without a separator.
