They are equivalent. It's just a matter of personal preference. I like it because it's shorter and it doesn't read as a loop that evaluates the value 'true' on each iteration. Even though you know the evaluation optimizes away trivially if you think about it, I don't even want to think that far when I'm scanning code.
