No, no, anyone can lease it back from the company they sold it to, and that way, it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

Or so I thought it was. I boiled an egg (the traditional way), peeled it, to realize that it was much too soft. So I put it on a small plate in the microwave to give it ten seconds extra. And it exploded.
It turns out that the pressure does not build up inside the shell, but inside the yolk. When it explodes (when some membrane covering it cannot hold it more), it explodes and ruptures the shell if it is there. It explodes just as much without shell being there.
If you need an excuse for (having to) cleaning up your microwave properly, try this out!

Now you know, we as nerds just love a good debate. And clearly, everyone who doesn't agree with us is intellectually inferior by substantial margins. And no other topic, save a few, has this proven to more evident than in the tabs versus spaces great debate of our generation. Now, rather than fan the flame of that saga, I'm curious to know what people still prefer for tab width (regardless of an actual tab char or if it's spaces).
For years, I've always been a four column guy with tab widths. I mean years. Anything else was stupid and bunches together what would otherwise be beautiful code. But then I started doing a lot of JavaScript development where the popular thing is to use two column widths. Ruby seems to embrace that too. It's ugly I thought. I shan't cave in. It's immoral and just wrong. But in being a team player you go along with what must be done for the sake of the project.
Now, a couple years later. I look at four column tab width code and think "well gee that's just too damn wide." I still don't like two column width. Looks like the code is still in kiddy land when I see that. I started doing some plug-in development for a Forex trading platform a few years back. It's a proprietary language and by default it uses 3 column widths in the code editor for it. At first I was like "ok wtf." But after years of using that proprietary language... turns out 3 column width is perfect!
You can use it everywhere. C#, C/C++, JavaScript. Whatever, it's a nice compromise for everyone. In this day and age where we are expected to learn 20 million things, both client and server, rather than just one language, I tend to find myself using this more and more so I don't have to readjust my eyes to differently spaced code all day long. Only problem is... nobody else uses 3 column widths that I know of.
So, I'm curious to know, what do y'all use still and why?

3 is still a bit too wide so I prefer 2.718 spaces per tab.

1.618 spaces is golden.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

Spaces rule and tabs drool.
2 spaces to be exact.

2 spaces in all environments, like even C#?

I like a half inch per indent level, so it depends on font (I prefer 8-point Andale Mono), screen size/resolution etc.

I gotcha... similar principle then... as far as wanting visual consistency.

The perfect width for a tab or spaces is... 42
I use 4, always have, always will. If any of my devs use more or less or convert to spaces they are publicly humiliated and forced to wear mittens to code for the next week until they learn that 4 is THE magic number when it comes to tabs and tabs are as close to perfection as code spacing and indents can possibly get.

Come on man... give spaces a try. Peddling this like a drug dealer. Only the first space is free.
Not to open up that can of worms, but I was a hardcore tabs guy for years. But spaces are universal. Once I got used to spaces, I could see my code formatted well in any IDE. I could upload it to the web server, output or inspect it in the terminal on Unix/Linux or command line or Notepad in Winders and it still was formatted well. Basically, it made life more portable. I never went back.

Chuck Norris is NOT celebrated for his programming abilities.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Meh! Chick Norris thinks in binary and writes in assembler. Everything he does is code.

I go along with whatever the IDE inserts for me when I hit TAB. What I hate is when VS separates the start (<) and end (>) of generic parameters onto separate lines. I don't have a problem with method call chains or method parameters spanning multiple lines, but those generic parameters belong onto the same darn line!
I only have a signature in order to let @DalekDave follow my posts.

I do the same thing, mostly to be consistent with my team. But...
if(i.haveUltimateSaySo) {
i.useTwoSpacesInsteadOfTabs();
i.putCurlyBraceAtEndOfIfLine();
i.useCurlyBracesOnEveryLoopOrConditional();
i.useCamelCase();
}

Been through the same journey as you. I like best 3 columns, but my current work requires 4 columns. Ah well.
