#code comments

[qnpc1]

Are you sad QSMP is over? Do you have Minecraft Java and want a little piece of QSMP that you can play? Do you like RP SMPs you can make OCs for?

Consider applying to join our QSMP AU Minecraft server!! We're accepting another group of roleplayers to add to Isla Quesadilla!

"20 years after the events of the original QSMP, a new batch of islanders have been brought to the island. Working together, they need to uncover the mysteries of The Federation, unfold the events of the past, and find a way to escape the island..."

(Since our project has already existed for about a year or so, you'll be introduced via crash landing (plane, boat, etc) to the pre-existing SMP!)

HTML & CSS Comment Tips

One valuable thing I have learned when starting any project is to include comments on your pages to provide a more structured layout.

For example, in HTML files, comments can be made with <!-- --->; anything within that space won’t appear on the page or be read by the browser.

A good way to use this in a page is to outline your areas, like in the image below.

Anywhere on your pages where you have a new section, you should use comments to outline what they are. This helps in a few ways. First, it increases readability for yourself and anyone else reading your code. Second, as your projects grow, doing this helps keep them organized. 

It’s easier to add to and edit when you can find the area where you want to make changes or add classes based on the comment tags rather than trying to narrow it down through many <div> tags. Third, it helps with remembering what you were doing.

The same principles apply to CSS files, although comments are left in a CSS file type with /*     */.

Using comments to outline the different style groups you intend to use in your projects can help you find the parts you want to edit. In general, using comments is something everyone should do. They are very helpful in JavaScript and other languages when making notes about what a function does or should be doing. You can also leave yourself notes about what you were working on.

Maybe most importantly, there's the comments the Users leave in the codes of their Programs (I've made some joke posts about those before). Little snippets of text that aren't necessary for the Program to function, but are messages explaining something about the code to other Users, or sometimes random thoughts or jokes.

From the perspective of the Programs, even the most seemingly insignificant comment in their own code would have a hugely spiritual significance. A message from the Users, buried inside the core of the Program's being, imprinted in their body and soul. They don't understand what all of it means, especially not the jokes, but they're certain that it must be very important, and gives tiny glimpses into the Realm of the Invisible, and the mighty beings who live there, who made them. Having even a single comment in your code is a source of pride for a Program, and Programs with lots of comments are viewed with especial awe by the others.

when patients are upset or nervous about their blood being drawn, sometimes i'll say "oh, don't worry, our vampires are extremely good at what they do." generally it works to relieve some tension or at least as a pause in the anxious build-up because it's absurd enough that the brain goes 'panic time? pani- wait what. that isn't in the script. hang on, hang on, stall the panic engines for a sec we need the power to run the logic centers again'. yesterday i said that many times. worked pretty great each time.

however.

towards the end of my shift, patient comes in with two family members. i get them checked in, during which this happens...

me: "What brings you in today?"

patient, brightly: "I need blood!"

me: "Oh, are you feeling a little hungry? We can..."

me, slowly processing those words: "...help........with....that."

patient: "My doctor yelled at me to come in because my blood is apparently lethally low, so-"

patient's family member A: "Did you just ask if she was hungry?"

me, slowly dying inside: "yeah, i- sometimes when people get their labs drawn i'll tell them don't worry, our vampires do excellent work, so i just"

(during this I am putting on their ID wristband and also apparently making inarticulate gestures trying to explain the whole mess)

me: "i am sorry, that was not a professional way of greeting you. please have a seat, the nurse will call you in a bit to finish-"

pt family member B: "do you guys have a cafeteria? Is it still open?"

me: "no, it isn't-"

pt family member B: "or i guess you'd call it a blood bank, right?"

me: "i...we...do have a cafeteria. it's not a cafeteria right now. i mean it is a cafeteria but the kitchen- there's just vending machines. and microwaves. it's down the hall and the second hallway on the right side."

pt family member B: "is there ice cream?"

me: "mayb- no I think there is, actually."

me, internally: you have 38 fucking minutes left of your shift fucking reengage brain and deal with it

while i am checking in the rest of the evening rush i hear the patient greet family member C. family member B comes back at about the same time, gesturing triumphantly with a frozen snickers bar. faintly i hear family member B saying something like "none for you, sorry, no type-B popsicles." family member A and patient start laughing, family member C is clearly taken aback.

family member A: " oh yeah (patient)'s real hungry for bluuuurd, that's why we're here."

patient: "I went up and said i needed blood and she asked if i was hungry, you know, like a vampire."

family member B: "it was great!"

As someone whose asexual and a monsterfucker and knowing that there is a large subsection of the monsterfucking community that is Ace or on that spectrum, Ford being very Ace-coded and implied to have fucked a a triangle feels accurate to me. representative, even.

I think most of us generally assume that Emmrich can tell when he's being flirted with. Like, man's got a decent amount of social skills and a keen sense of observation, and he's definitely fucked before. He knows what flirting looks like.

The funniest way I've found so far to throw a wrench into the whole thing is to give him a Rook who can't fucking tell when they're flirting. Like, sure, Emmrich's Flirt Radar's pinging all over the goddamn place, but Rook's all sweet, doe-eyed smiles and gentle compliments with everyone and Emmrich just can't figure it out.

I think movie buff Duke Thomas should force Jason to watch the LOTR movies and literature nerd Jason Todd should force Duke to read the books.

They should make a movie night out of it and then a weekly book club that's really just Jason periodically hacking comms during Duke's patrol so he can yell at him to finish each chapter like a deranged English teacher that follows you around at work. And then they should get into heated arguments about Tom Bombadil; and Duke should get really invested in overanalyzing all the poetry in the book trilogy; and Jason should rewatch all three movies like seven times at least so he can scribble thoughts into the margins of his paperback copies, write dissertations in his head about the effectiveness of different story changes, and cry at Sam's "But I can carry you!" without having to stop reading.

And then they should repeat all of this with The Hobbit. They're both a little psychotic about it and the rest of the family is tired.
