And somewhere, deep in the recesses in millions and millions of lines in thousands and thousands of files... 4 spaces instead of a tab.

Tabs would make so much more sense. 1 character per indent.

[–] linearchaos 6 points 1 year ago

Tabs are always the intent but occasionally copy and paste makes fools of us all.

Should be your editor.

A proper ide would do it but it seems most of the places I'm writing yaml, proper IDEs aren't available.

Ah yes, the joys of automating everything to the extent that when someone does happen to be a guest in your house that you need to give them a ten minute lecture on how to turn on the lights because "it's all automated" but "you're still working on it"

This is the main reason why me and my dad hate guests staying at our houses.

Sounds like a dream. Try JIRA tickets and MS Word.

someone needs to take that fletch scene where chevy chase aka fletch says its all ball bearings and make it into a meme about its all yaml.
