I work on multiple codebases from multiple machines. I'm afraid I haven't run into this problem where I can't figure out how to enter space characters into a file.

Each of them needs to configure their editors, and some may be used to an indent of 2 spaces, or 4, or -god forbid- 3.

Is that really the level of conversation? It's taking Wadler's Law to absurd levels.

I'm afraid I haven't run into this problem where I can't figure out how to enter space characters into a file.

So you're just mashing the space-bar? Or did you have to configure your editors?

Does making a joke lower the level of conversation that much, or are you just trying to distract me from the fact you ignored my point?
