这只是众多案例中的一个……

有一次，我在另一个讨论中看到这样的内容:

// I can't divide with zero, so I have to divide with something very similar
result = number / 0.00000000000001;

聪明的解决方案，不是吗?(如果有人不确定，这就是个笑话)

// This code was written by a genius so don't try to understand it with
// your tiny little brain.

virgin = 0;     /* you're not a virgin anymore, sweety */

在linux 1.0内核调度器(schedule .c)中:

Dijkstra可能讨厌我。

/*
 *  'schedule()' is the scheduler function. It's a very simple and nice
 * scheduler: it's not perfect, but certainly works for most things.
 * The one thing you might take a look at is the signal-handler code here.
 *
 *   NOTE!!  Task 0 is the 'idle' task, which gets called when no other
 * tasks can run. It can not be killed, and it cannot sleep. The 'state'
 * information in task[0] is never used.
 *
 * The "confuse_gcc" goto is used only to get better assembly code..
 * Dijkstra probably hates me.
