I like to program using sarcastic spongebob case. Gives me more time to think, the variables and functions look different to other library methods.
(I also use tabs instead of spaces)
Your editor automatically converts tabs into spaces, right?
... right?
Wait hold up I thought that yours was converting spaces into tabs?
Nope! I make sure set it to tabs only!

[insert Linus' rant]
java was my first language and now every time i changed contracts from java to something else like python, or ruby, or c++, i still keep using camelcase out of habit and it drives the other devs mad. fortunately, i mostly refactor legacy work so i almost never work on new stuff that would let me use camelcase. lol
Tabs > spaces for sure, but camel case is blasphemy.
I do like the idea of having an intent level character. And once we have that, we don't need AltGr7 etc (curly braces) to denote which level we're at either, the whitespace has all the information we need.
But ultimately I just use whatever is default for the language formatter these days. My own personal preferences on that isn't actually that important, and I find that's a common feeling once someone just works with the default for a while.
Ahh, one fewer key to hit, mi amigo!
It doesn't look as "computer nerdy" as snake case, but I also prefer the readability of it.
