Lizards taste like chicken. And aligators are a mix of slightly fishy chicken. In actual fact, quite alot of "exotic" cooked flesh tastes of chicken, except for politicians who taste like maggots. I've had Witchetty Grubs in Oz and a mate of mine from Sierra Leon eats locusts.
Here's a possible reason for tastes (if you're as bored as me):
I used to be able to disassemble z80 & 8080/8085 code by eye, more or less.
I could do Z80 pretty much at one stage.
I remember having a print out of the assembler for the ORIC-1 ROM, all 16K of it, that I used to spend hours figuring out. That was probably when I was 11 as well. Oh so sad.
As for comments, I find the people that harp on about comments are usually the ones that fill the code with pointless comments, like...
GetHeight() // get the height
SetHeight() // set the height
etc. Also one colleague of mine would have some fancy macro that added a comment to each function, so each function would have
// TODO: Write description of function
at the start, because nobody ever filled in the comment. Worst still is when people write comments, but don't update the comments when the code changes. This is what happens when people blindly follow what they think they're supposed to do, rather than do what's actually useful. The same can happen to a lesser extent with specifications.
