// Singleton object. Leave $me alone.
private static $me;

// END HACK: I feel dirty.

从2004年的Windows泄露事件来看，

__inline BOOL
SearchOneDirectory(
                  IN  LPSTR Directory,
                  IN  LPSTR FileToFind,
                  IN  LPSTR SourceFullName,
                  IN  LPSTR SourceFilePart,
                  OUT PBOOL FoundInTree
                  )
{
    //
    // This was way too slow. Just say we didn't find the file.
    //
    *FoundInTree = FALSE;
    return(TRUE);
}

我在COBOL程序中看到的一些东西让我感到恐惧

* All comments pertain to the lines which follow.

这是什么意思?

有人对评论感到不舒服，以至于不得不写一个元评论? 有人习惯将注释放在相关代码的下面，而被告知要将注释放在上面?这是怎么发生的?

/*
* After 36 hours, 2 holes in my wall and writing my code right beside the API
* this still doesn't work.
* function getMap():void takes in an event object @param: evt:mouseEvent
* I will now retire for the day with a bottle of rum and 2 hours of crying
*/

刚从大学毕业的我渴望亲自动手。我的第一个任务是……“为我注释此代码”。

傻瓜。

过了一段时间我就厌倦了……

// this function doesn't actually calculated the profit, like it says --it really signals the mothership orbiting saturn that the planet is ripe for takeover

[later]

// I don't think anyone is going to read this

[various permutations on that last one]
