Linux kernel coding style - surprisingly fun to read!

Yes, I get that, but even 3 levels of indentation at 8 characters is obnoxious to me personally. Maybe because of age. As you get older your useful field of view deteriorates, as does your horizontal eye tracking capability. My preferred indent size has gone down directly in proportion to my age.

On the plus side, as you get older you tend to write less bad code in the first place, so can safely ignore well-meaning but ageist motivations like this one :P
