Saturday Code Quote: 1

November 15th, 2008

This is going to be the first in a series of funny source code comments I happen to stumble across.  First up is the Apache Jakarta project…

Someone’s not flushing the office toilet – eew:

    /**
     * A Writer based on a wrapped Writer but ignoring requests to
     * close() and flush() it.  (Someone must have wrapped the
     * toilet in my office similarly...)
     */

From the source of Apache Jakarta Project.

November 3rd, 2008

Just yesterday I was reading about Dracula, Romanian language, Vlad the Impaler, Transylvania, etc.  As you do of a Sunday evening.

Then by sheer coincidence I come across Mike Mondragon who is the maintainer of MMS2R – a mobile phone MMS library for Ruby.

Mike Mondragon – clearly the best name on RubyForge.

I salute thee.
