It just shows that the author is an intermediate-level programmer at best, if his main concern about the 'beauty' of code is in how it's formatted (spaces vs tabs! K&R vs Allman braces!) and whether it's const correct. Throw in a sprinkle of complaining about silly comments (because obviously there are armies of people out there defending documenting getter/setter functions...) and the obligatory 'templates are bad because I don't understand them', and you have yet another cookie cutter programmer link bait blog post polluting the general internets.
