The linux version is overly emotional/rage-y and strongly overstates its cause.
The first version is calm and honest, does not pretend preference is actually somehow objective universal statement.

His point still stands though - if you ever need one too many indent levels, the code could almost certainly use simplification.
> The answer to that is that if you need more than 3 levels of indentation, you’re screwed anyway, and should fix your program.
Maybe in context of old C, but in java you have two nestings just for being in class method. So as a general point, it does not stand anyway.
In reference to your above point. You’re saying modern Java makes you start out at 2 levels of indentation. I’m saying your modern monitor’s width compensates.
Really? I can't read it as anything but tongue-in-cheek.
I default to the idea everything is potentially-insincere, especially online. Do you not?
Plus, I don't see a reason to attempt to mind read. If you write something angry for fun, the result is angry text. It is ok to interpret it as such.
Ok asked us to contrast two arguments. That is what I did.
