I feel that Yaml sucks. I understand the need for such markup language but I think it sucks. Somehow it’s clunky to use. Can you explain why?

I started in C before moving on to C++, Java, Ruby and Python.

I’ve had more bugs from missing braces than from misaligned whitespace because the latter is far more obvious when looking at a block of code.

Compilation error or run time errors? One is a gift and the other is a curse.
