Do you know how many swear words are contained in the Linux Kernel?
I saw a tweet from jploh about the silly comment on the Asterisk source. I found that a european was insulted being called silly.
Here’s the link The Silly comment I’ll paste what was on the source code of Asterisk Open Source PBX.
/*! \brief Pick the best audio codec */
int ast_best_codec(int fmts)
{
/* This just our opinion, expressed in code. We are asked to choose
the best codec to use, given no information */
int x;
static int prefs[] =
{
/*! Okay, ulaw is used by all telephony equipment, so start with it */
AST_FORMAT_ULAW,
/*! Unless of course, you're a silly European, so then prefer ALAW */
AST_FORMAT_ALAW,
I lol’ed when I saw that. So a lot of discussions were made. Then Mike Cargile from VICIDIAL Group about the amount of swear words from the Linux Kernel. He welcomed the european dude to the world of Open Source.
Here’s the amount of swear words that are inserted to the Kernel.
