If you do what that guys says and use runit, you'll be happy. I use runit, and I am happy with it.
However, I also think you'll be happy with Upstart or Systemd, even if you find them over-engineered and inelegant. They'll do what they need to with minimal configuration, and you're probably already using one of them behind the scenes. Why not use one of them, if you have it sitting right there, already installed and configured?
