For your secondary question, I think using both tabs and spaces depending on language/project is not that uncommon.

elazar10307y@alwaysmpe OT but of all languages, using tabs with the one that has a very strict (and formally documented) recommendation *against* tabs...
I hope you are at least using Python3, or some tool that enforces this automatically, since accidentally mixing tabs and spaces in Python2 can easily result in hard-to-find bugs. -
daniello2737y@2ndAttmt yes i realized that too. Don't know what was my minds Intention.
@hitchhiker42 yes I can do that -
Far too few questions that ask about language. Had no idea what to prioritize, so I actually left out the one I am currently using most often.

Cibot07yHow come everyone hates Java but it's the most used language on here? Is it more of a running gag?

@Cibot everybody hates Windows but it's the most widely used OS.
I'd say for Java it's all about the money. Java is enterprise software, and people get paid a lot for the pain they endure coding in that horrible language. -
atheist98407y@elazar I'll be honest, you won't like any of my answers...
We use python 2 and hope.
At least it's not production code (prototyping).

Hello fellow ranters,
I created a poll to find out the distribution of used programming languages among us:
https://goo.gl/forms/...
I am curious, because obviously PHP is not very admired, and probably JS is the most used language around here. Lets see!
There is no information collected beside your answers. It would be awesome if you take this survey kind of seriously and do not add toooo many childish options ;)
You should have an insight into the answers after you participated. Maybe I will post some results after some time.
