I also try to avoid conditions like while(true) in multi-threaded situations.

while(x++ < some_number);

int x = 0;
 
while(x < some_number)

    // Do some work.
 
    x++;

Is there a reason you want to use the do/while loop construct? It can come in handy when you need to run the loop at least once
