I met one of the guys that worked on the original Python spec and asked why they wrote Python when there were so many other languages already to choose from and he said, oh, I don't know, it's another language. And your sarcasm not withstanding, you can eliminate spaces like that as long as you replace them with another deliminator, which is actually the whole point.
Try C# if you want to be really pleasantly surprised.
I can't believe this post isn't modded up more. More and more I feel like the readership of slashdot is a bunch of script-kiddies rather than professional coders. The idea that you would use whitespace to denote something as important as scope is ludicrous. In fact, the idea that you would use whitespace to denote ANYTHING is ludicrous.
Nice use of a logical fallacy.
I read that entire article and I honestly have no idea what the point was. I was excited to learn about how a RESTful API was employed in a heads-up application and learned...nothing.
