我曾经想出了一个我认为很优雅的解决方案来解决一个特别棘手的问题，现在回想起来，这有点令人费解，并且大量使用了宏编程。多年以后，我从一个维护程序员那里发现了这条评论

/*
    Description: The Total Perspective Vortex derives its picture of the
                 whole Universe  on the principle of extrapolated matter
                 analyses.

                 To  explain  -  since every piece of matter in the Universe
                 is in some way affected by every other piece of matter in
                 the  Universe,  it  is  in  theory possible to extrapolate
                 the whole of creation - every sun, every planet, their
                 orbits, their composition and their economic and social
                 history from, say, one small Macro.

                 The man who invented the Total Perspective Vortex did so
                 basically in order to annoy the IT department.

                 Steve Weet - for that was his name - was a dreamer, a
                 thinker, a speculative philosopher or, as some would have
                 it, a slacker.

                 And they would nag him incessantly about the utterly
                 inordinate amount of time he spent staring out into space,
                 or mulling over the mechanics of Chelsea FC, or doing
                 spectrographic analyses of macros.

                 "Have  some  sense  of  proportion!"  they would say,
                 sometimes as often as thirty-eight times in a single day.

                 And so he built the Total Perspective Vortex - just to show
                 them.

                 And into one end he plugged the whole of reality as
                 extrapolated  from one  macro, and into the other
                 end he plugged the IT department: so that when he turned it
                 on they saw in one instant the whole infinity of creation 
                 and theirselves in relation to it.

                 To  Steve Weet's horror, the shock completely annihilated '
                 their brains; but to his satisfaction he realized that he
                 had proved conclusively that if life is going to exist in a
                 Universe of this size, then the one thing it cannot afford
                 to have is a sense of proportion.

我在重用我很久以前写的一个PHP类时发现了这一点。我仍然不记得那里有什么，我仍然发现它没有任何用处……我甚至不记得我写过那篇评论;所以当我找到它的时候，我真的笑出声来了。

try
{               
    // Some database logic
}
catch (Exception $ex)
{
    // sure, it looks silly and I honestly cant remember what code used to go here... but i swear i will
    // find a use for this code.... eventually....
    throw $ex;
}

在为一家芬兰移动网络设备制造商工作期间，我深入研究了硬件抽象层，发现芬兰语单词“puukko”出现了100多次。

“puukko”是一种万能刀，每个芬兰人的工具箱里或家里都有。它被用于从剥土豆到电脑维修(我的观察)的所有事情。我相信在这个语境中，它相当于芬兰语中的“Hack”。

我的芬兰同事否认了这一点，并说这更像是“外科手术/干预”……我差点就相信了，直到我看到下面的评论:

/* Perkele ISO Puukko! */ -> Fucking Big Hack!
