I'm in there!!!

Though really by "we" I mean, me, the original author, and you (who is probably also me, just in the future) the poor bastard trying to figure out what the original author intended when he wrote it.

Me too. But in my case it's like "me and my plugin" or "me and the computer"...

Yeah, I mean that too. "Me and the CPU". When you're step debugging, that's exactly what it feels like.

Actually "me and the virtual CPU" where the "virtual CPU" is common known as OS thread. I'm certainly not a geek.

I think you could also call it "we-passive" where "we" is used as a placeholder for a missing subject.

I think the "we" is pretty common. I think all the code I've encountered professionally was either using "we" or not commented at all (and unfortunately, usually the latter

)
