我在遗留代码中注意到的修改日志

05/17/99 d琼斯评论出来 血腥的auzies代码(02/19/99) k罗宾逊该死的德克萨斯人 不能正确拼写aussie(没有代码 改变-只是一个评论)

//Not a bug, parameter position can change..., if you think this is wrong, you are in fact wrong.

我喜欢GNU双utils中的一些注释。这个来自BFD som.c:

/* You'll never believe all this is necessary to handle relocations
   for function calls.  Having to compute and pack the argument
   relocation bits is the real nightmare.

   If you're interested in how this works, just forget it.  You really
   do not want to know about this braindamage.  */

这个也是:

/* Don't ask about these magic sequences.  I took them straight
   from gas-1.36 which took them from the a.out man page.  */

...

/* Keep track of exactly where we are within a particular
   space.  This is necessary as the braindamaged HPUX
   loader will create holes between subspaces *and*
   subspace alignments are *NOT* preserved.  What a crock.  */

另一个:

/* We will NOT put a fucking timestamp in the header here. Every
   time you put it back, I will come in and take it out again. ... */

从气体:

/* Yes this is ugly (storing the broken_word pointer
   in the symbol slot).  Still, this whole chunk of
   code is ugly, and I don't feel like doing anything
   about it.  Think of it as stubbornness in action.  */

/**
 * Always returns true.
 */
public boolean isAvailable() {
    return false;
}

永远不要依赖评论……

这是在PHP代码中找到的

$s=2; // chicken and bacon wrap for lunch

多么有用，幸运的是$s是不言自明的

long long ago; /* in a galaxy far far away */
