This reminds me of something I read on HN a while back and forgot to bookmark. (Naturally I've been unable to find it since.)

I think the article was written by a company who made a static code analysis tool. They described how there wasn't a large difference in quality between FOSS and proprietary code, except for one detail: FOSS code used "else" statements much less.

Anyone have any idea what I'm thinking of or if I'm even remembering it correctly?




That does sound familiar. Was it possibly from either the NDepend blog, or more likely, the PVS-Studio blog?


Did you try http://hn.algolia.com ?
