You need to turn your head to read the line number.

Besides, your lines shouldn't be longer than 80 characters anyway

Well, as the picture says, with this bad boy you can use 86 characters per line.

Two hours and no-one's challenged this? People must be asleep.

(This is not that challenge. Only pointing out that someone usually has by now.)

Eh, depends on the language and the context. I still use 80 for C, but I've found 120 to be a much more reasonable number for Java.
