    I write such comments because I have to.

    Company policy.

    Also we have to specify every line of code and what it should do…

      I feel like I am going to have to do the same thing in the end, to get my hand-over accepted.
      Should I just copy the line of code and make a comment next to it with:

      // It does <paste line of code>

          Not every. The quick, very-low effort ones, I just leave.

          Why:
          I saw another post with “Anti Commercial AI License”, then wen on to read the license and went, “Neat!”.

          • It makes it easier for anyone to decide what to do if they want to use my comment/post (in cases where it actually has something useful)
          • It makes life just a bit harder for people data-mining for AI
            • That way, some data entry worker will probably ask for a raise and probably even get it and maybe some entrepreneur going “AI everywhere!” will think twice.
            • Or there will be a chatbot spouting “Anti Commercial AI License” or “CC By-NC-SA” in their answer text, which would be hilarious.

            How are you inserting your signature? is it manually? Do you have some kind of keyboard shortcut to insert it?

              For now, I have just saved it in my clipboard application, so I copy-paste.
              When it goes out of history, I just open a file, where I have saved it and copy from there. So it’s pretty crude.

              I was hoping that either the KDE Social web interface would add a “Signature” feature or I would pick some Lemmy application that would allow that, but for now it’s just this.

              Perhaps, if I feel like it’s being too frequent, I may set a compose key for it.
