I doubt anyone has a work related reason to read about the meaning of =()=. So I'd say anyone reading that thread isn't surfing the web in the bosses time anyway.

    Anyone inheriting code that contains it could easily innocently ask about it, not knowing that racy background it has. Maybe that's why someone asked about it in meaning of =()=. It's pretty silly to say that no one will ever be asking about it for legitimate reasons because that assumes everyone knows about it. I certainly didn't know about its colorful past.

      You sound as if you think it's normal to find =()= in serious code.
