I'm 32 and I feel like I'm already at that stage sometimes. What will I be like when I'm 50?


I'm 70, push out production code every day (Horstmann style https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_style#Horstmann_st...), and I'm having the time of my life.


Horstmann style looks like my ideal, but there's very little tool support for it, from what I've seen. For instance, if I want to swap the first two lines of an "if" statement, I can't use "line-based" copy/paste. Do you do things manually, or does your editor support it fairly well?

EDIT: looks like the tool support is so bad, Horstmann himself pretty much gave up: http://horstmann.com/unblog/2010-06-28/braces.html


Better.
