    There’s a thread on Reddit showcasing some hilarious Code Comments within the Generals Codebase: https://old.reddit.com/r/commandandconquer/comments/1izpkmh/funny_generals_source_code_comments/

    Examples:

        // Assumption: Things with a KINDOF_STRUCTURE flag can never be built from 
    // a factory (ProductionUpdateInterface), because the building can't move
    // out of the factory. When we do our Starcraft port and have flying Terran
    // buildings, we'll have to change this ;-)
    // Remember: To ASSUME makes an ASS out of U and ME. 
    Player.cpp

        // HERE WOULD BE A GREAT PLACE FOR AN IDIOT TEST:
  // REJECT SIMULATION NODES THAT ARE OFF SCREEN!!!!!!!!!!

  HeirarchyView.cpp

  W3DFileSystem.cpp

    Honestly, I’m worried about my job and how difficult it will be to get another if I get laid off (I work in Tech) due to business shenanigans and things out of my control. My mental health is at an all time low because of the anxiety; last month it was due to Trump and Elon’s attack on the integrity of US Govt Services, and before that the looming climate crisis. It’s affecting my sleep and recently I get slight headaches throughout the day. I’m so tired of feeling anxious all the time.

    I’m burnt out mentally; if I get laid off this year I’m just going to activate my NZ Working Holiday Visa (applied in advance in expectation of layoffs) and just chill.

    My feed on Instagram is filled with Nature / Science Documentaries, Comic and Cartoons Reels (Pokemon, Tom and Jerry, etc). But sometimes comments will exhibit the usual shenanigans (i.e. “I don’t believe in evolution”), or accounts that used to be legit suddenly devolve into advertisement spam.

    I make sure my preferences are kept by liking the content / posts that cater to them so the algorithm shows me more of them. Of course, I also set a timer on Android so that I don’t spend too much time on the platform (20 mins a day)
