Me too, any day. I hate everything where indentation matters. Let me just throw my garbage there and YOU sort it out, you are the fucking computer, not me. You do the work.
Spaces? Tabs? Don’t care, works regardless.
Copied some code from somewhere else? No problem, 9/10 times it just works. Bonus: a smart IDE will let you quick-format the entire code to whatever style you configured at the click of a button even if it was a complete mess to begin with, as long as all the curly braces are correct.
Also, in any decent IDE you will very rarely need to actually count curly braces, it finds the pair for you, and even lets you easily navigate between them.
The inconsistent way that whitespace is handled across applications makes interacting with code outside your own code files incredibly finicky when your language cares so much about the layout.
There’s an argument to be made for the simplicity of python-style indentation and for its aesthetic merits, but IMO that’s outweighed by the practical inconvenience it brings.
Because Python uses indentation instead of curly brackets, which is why this meme exists. Also jetbrains ide s like pycharm and webstorm do all of this for you.
Not as good as jetbrains does, it automatically does things like realign when you paste things and lots of little things that improve the coding experience by a lot.
Have you tried using an auto formatter? Let’s you write code however and fixes the structure automatically on save. It’s way easier for me to write curly braces then hit ctrl+s than have to select multiple lines manually and tab in and out. I feel the biggest gains I’ve made in productivity came after I learned to embrace tooling.
Better than counting curly braces.
I’ll take the curly braces

So fuck you, YAML! All my homies love JSON!
All your homies hate comments.
My code also documents itself, of course.
Yeah Yaml is nicer than json, but I’m not into the Python indenting at all.
I’m here to spread the good word about JSONC. It is the way and everyone should adopt it in place of JSON wherever possible.
Yup.

But, nobody ever copies code from Stack Overflow!
if you have to count the curly braces I understand why you are a python developer
You don’t usually count them. They just have to form a neat diagonal.
Also, highlighted the way you expect when you click next to braces works too.
That’s also how indentation works…
parentheses
Why not both

Even the mosy basic text editors does indentation for you, not even an IDE needed

Okay cool!
yep.
