Lightning Talk: Whitespace: A Humorous Short Talk
summary
Argues concrete, testable formatting rules and shows patched examples in clang — edits real functions to move arguments, collapse lines and align braces, demonstrating improved readability. Claims: closing brace aligns with opener or sits alone on its own line, 80 columns is enough, indent by tab size and prefer return type on its own line. Uses clang lvm code snippets and quick diffs as evidence, peppers the talk with a tongue‑in‑cheek toilet‑paper patent anecdote to spark a whitespace holy war.
