Wow nice argumentation there. I'm sure you'll get far.
I literally just installed emacs on a PC that never had it installed at all, opened a C++ code file, and by default it was using spaces. I can understand the advantages of having different indentation mods for different languages, but not having some way to globally override it as ludicrous.
>How much of the code most distros runs is written by paid devs?
I don't know. The kernel itself is mostly written by paid devs, but for the distros it's hard to tell. Most contributors aren't even developers, they translate and maintain packages, test etc. I think many of them are professional, but they do it on their spare time unless the lucky few that are hired by Canonical or FSF/Gnome.
>Does your code gets shipped outside
Yes.
>what you do?
I develop and maintain drivers and software for a proprietary interconnection technology that the company I work for makes (low-latency high-speed interconnection). Some software is GPL, and some is proprietary.
>How custom is your distro (e.g. stock image, modded image, built from scratch)?
I just run Ubuntu LTS with Xfce, but I'm considering jumping to Fedora permanently because I'm tired of outdated packages.
I have some colleagues that swear to iwm and awesome, and a former colleague had written his own one, but I personally just prefer Xfce.
>hurr durr why is my editor using the same indentation as the one already being used in the file, it's stupid, fuck emacs, fuck linux
Fuck off, retard. Seriously, google it, >>>/sqt/ or just fucking kill yourself. Whatever you find easier.
>but not having some way to globally override it as ludicrous.
