// Oh crap, i think i'm gonna yack

随后不久又有:

// TODO: end this lunacy

# There is a bug in the next line.  $searchParameters != {} will always return true, because {} is creating
# a new hash reference on the fly, and the inequality operater is comparing the memory location of it
# to the memory location of $searchParameters, and they will always be different. 
# This means that the following code will always get executed as long as $nodes is defined.
# I'm leaving it there because it has always been there, and although I'm sure it was originally meant to
# mean %$searchParameters (essentially "is this hash not empty"), I'm afraid to change it.
if ( $nodes && $searchParameters != {} )
{

return 1; # returns 1

生产源代码:

// Remove this if you wanna be fired

在20世纪80年代早期的某个时候，我们在PL/I中为公用事业编写财务建模代码。接到一个客户的电话，说代码在评论之后就爆炸了

/* Honest this works */

这家伙用了我们的标准金融方程花了大约15页的代数把一堆代码组合成一个方程。在三里岛事件后，当公用事业公司不得不以巨大的代价注销他们的核电站时，这个方程失败了，因为FIXED BIN 15(整数)溢出，如果代数没有发生，就不会发生这种溢出。
