when you are refactoring CSS but ....

Developer saying programming is pure logic have never done CSS in their life

I let my wife use my laptop for a minute. She closed all my tabs and I can't restore them. Our love died inside a little today.

Devlopers will get it

Currently shitting, thanks for being there devRant.

Spaces Vs Tabs - A real world case.

So one of the menial tasks I was given here was to take a pretty mock and turn it into an HTML email template. Needless to say, I hate emails and HTML.

After many weeks of trial and error, rejection and tweaks, we're doing our final tests when someone noticed that Google's clients are chopping off the footer and saying "View Full Email".

A few searches yield that Google has a 102KB cut off for email size. We did some checks and found that we were at 104KB. I immediately thought it was my CSS inliner being a little too verbose, but as I went in to edit things, I noticed that the file was intended with spaces!

Now I'm a fan of Silicon Valley, and I recalled an episode from this past season where Richard mentioned something about saving file size by using tabs. I had never really considered that point.

So I went back into VSCode and told it to convert all of the individual templates that make up this giant email to indent with tabs...

The file size dropped from 104kb to 82kb.

I wasn't very polarized on the Tabs vs Spaces debate, but this here has given me a nice real world example as to why tabs rule.

Just a refresher..

Well, that's true. ;)

What do you think ?

On his first week at job, the junior says:

Hey guys! Check out this new website I found! You'll thank me later.

Anybody else had to do their programming exams using only pen and paper?

programmers true meaning.

Not sure if it has been here, but the height of SO:

In full knowledge I'll never get an 100 1+ rant, I've made my own devRant stressball

all unit tests passing

When you accidentally leave a console.log in your code that goes into production that says: "I'm fucking working!!!" and notice it a year later when fixing a bug.

My life hurts when I have to develop on someone else's computer and they use the "light-theme". #teamdarkside

Was having an internship interview, and the guy starts laughing while reading my resume and says:
"don't put visual basic on your resume if you don't want to work with it"
I proceeded to remove it ASAP.

TNW brought me here. And I am not disappointed.
