"...However, you’ll quickly find that there is literally a world of people out there who are willing to work for $1.50 an hour and would be terrifically overpaid at that price..."

That's the number one reason why some clients of mine comeback to me saying their last developer didn't quite accomplish what they wanted. And the reason why sometimes I have to struggle to fix bugs and identification (yes, many low-cost devs don't have a tab key) on other peoples code.

You normally get what you paid for, but I hope it worked nice for you.

That's one of those little things that really annoy me- not because they are important, but because it's so easy to get right!

Hell, most IDEs would indent your code correctly for you, I'd have to actually work to override eclipse's auto-indentation!

I always enjoy incorrect corrections.
