Not really sure whether S-expressions or Python indentation-based scoping get more hate...
(programming.dev)
...from people who seem to refuse to install paredit or coloring plugins for either? ps lisp syntax ftw, it's a feature!
Who hates s-expressions? They're elegant as fuck...
Python, on the other hand, deserves all the hate it gets for making whitespace syntactically significant - I even prefer Go's hamfisted
go fmtapproach to a forced syntax to python's bullshit.I dgaf about indices starting at 0 or 1, I can deal with case-insensitivity, but syntactically significant whitespace drives me up the wall.
What's so hard to understand about it? It's how you should format your code anyway. Only it's enforced.
sometimes, a script needs to be edited in a plain text editor, without having access to an lsp or any other dev tools.
