Why spaces are better than tabs

Why spaces are better than tabs

One of the longest unresolved arguments among developers is whether you should use tabs or spaces in your code. It is also difficult to find good discussion on the topic because it gets sidetracked by non-issues. This post makes two assumptions, so we can focus on what matters:

  • You use a code editor which assists in indenting. Whether the file contains tabs or spaces, you just press Tab once to indent.
  • The project is set up (e.g. through GitHub actions) to reject malformatted files,

Can't Copy/Paste in Google Docs on Firefox:
Set dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled on about:config to true
Speed-up Firefox's awesome bar / location bar:
browser.urlbar.delay to 0 speeds up the search response
layout.frame_rate 60
In "about:config" change "layout.frame_rate" from -1 to 60 (or whatever your monitor runs at).
For some stupid reason, Firefox renders as fast as your CPU can handle 100% of the time.
Even at 60 FPS, it uses ~1% CPU when idle so I'm guessing it was going like 6000FPS when unrestrained.

Deploy to `gh-pages` from a `dist` folder on the master branch. Useful for use with [yeoman](http://yeoman.io).

Deploying a subfolder to GitHub Pages

Sometimes you want to have a subdirectory on the master branch be the root directory of a repository’s gh-pages branch. This is useful for things like sites developed with Yeoman, or if you have a Jekyll site contained in the master branch alongside the rest of your code.

For the sake of this example, let’s pretend the subfolder containing your site is named dist.

Step 1

Remove the dist directory from the project’s .gitignore file (it’s ignored by default by Yeoman).
