Whitespace is worthless extra bytes

Name: Anonymous 2007-05-16 17:11 ID:g5owuBHL

Ok /prog/, we all know indentation is stupid, but why does anyone use whitespace *anywhere*? It just makes the code take up that much more space on the disk, and it slows down the compiler because it has to read past all the whitespace so it can parse the code. I got rid of all my whitespace and my programs build so much faster now!

Here, I dont get the OP is not using whitespace supposed to be cool?

Cool people use spaces to seperate words, and they use punctuation (and paranthesis yes I have read sicp!) to emphasize meaning.
