> Also, the block indentation/braces look deeply messed up on github, any idea what happened?

Combination of using spaces and tabs for indentation. Looks like it'd look fine with tab size set to 4, but it should of course only use one method of indentation.

Yes it seems like it. Gotta find VIM script to catch those

I'd suggest paying more attention to how the code shows up in Github next time (assuming they're reviewing it on Github). If I'm reviewing a potential hire's code, I'd want to see that they pay attention to details like that, lest the production code base get super ugly / hard to read.

Yeah, I confess I'd find it hard to review someone's code with random-looking indentation going on, it's easy to imagine someone treating it as a bad sign. Definitely fix this for your next interview, keep trying though. :-)

listchars works pretty well. I have this in my .vimrc:

    set list
    set listchars=tab:>=,trail:~,extends:>,precedes:<,nbsp:.

Edit: you can also configure it to use one type of indentation. I use "set expandtab" so that my files are always indented with spaces.

Thanks for that
