I thought it was 8 characters per tab: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/CodingStyle . Maybe I'm just confused by the conversation and the discussion is about hitting the tab key (inserting spaces) or hitting the space bar a number of times to indent.
Drupal sucks balls. It's very counterintuitive for something that claims to be simple and modular. Behaviors are inconsistent across themes, half of the available themes are broken, TFS is right about Drupal not supporting jack shit right off the bat. Enabling the modules requires manual downloads and dependency hells. The notion of using the site as you build it is shit, and using an "admin theme" just causes trouble because of the inconsistent behaviors across themes. Even its own advocates recommend just writing your own PHP and CSS.
Can somebody please develop a CMS for people without Asperger's ?!
Can you offer another CMS that doesn't have the same issues, and does everything you're pretty little world wants?
I spent a bit of time playing with Joomla, WP, and Drupal. For some reason, I dug Drupal for many reasons:
- customization
- online support
- "FREE" modules
- did I say customization without needing to code anything, ala CCK / VIews
And yes, I'll admit it's a learning curve working with Drupal, but so are all the other CMS products out there. If you're going to bash something, at least throw some specifics out; and I'm not talking about grabbing some pre-built theme and having issues - go for WP if you want cookie-cutter stuff.
Owner: [sweeping a bunch of toads out] Get out, get out! Shoo, shoo.
Get out of here, yuck! These bloody things are everywhere.
They're in the lift, in the lorry, in the bond wizard, and all
over the malonga gilderchuck. Clerk: They're like kangaroos, but they're reptiles, they is. Marge: We have them in America. They're called bullfrogs. Clerk: What? That's an odd name. I'd have called them "chazzwazzers".
Take a PR-5 site with 500k daily hits of worthless traffic compared to a PR-0 site of 10k daily hits that converts. I'd take the PR-0.
In regard to this thread's website, the fact that his website is so popular is because it spread virally and because he got a ton of media attention. Who cares about PR if you have that type of exposure.
He's being a cunning VP of sales and distribution. Before long, all the people who you say aren't demanding what he's selling, will be demanding it -- just because he has been saying it's valuable and wanted.
The flock doesn't come up with their own ideas of what they want; they're fed them.
on AllTheWeb gives me 131 results, with more than half being a reference to a PHP website manual (and even a dislaimer footer because it had the words "PHP" and "and" in it ???). Moreover, it took my "and" literally as a search criteria, though my advance searching techniques could probably use a bit of help;)
In comparison, Google gives me 73 links (without omitted results showing) with many results displaying ALL my keywords in bold and not ONE of them using "and" as a keyword.
Dunno, I'm probably a bit biased anyway since "Google" types out so much easier for me (repetition i guess) than "alltheweb".
Geolocation is actually helpful in the adult entertainment community where credit card fraud / chargebacks can be a huge expense from international clients. Once a user is detected international, we throw them a dialer page (join through telephone charges) rather than a regular "Enter your credit card info".
Keeps our costs down so we can spend the money gathering more good, wholesome, masturbatory material.

I'm honestly curious: is there a style guide that says to use tabs? The ones I've looked at all recommend spaces.

Just want to mod the parent post up, because most of posts on this topic seem to mistake "immigrant" with "illegal immigrant".

Page rank means nothing (well, almost).
