Personally unrelatable. I assume this is different in industry code but in both personal and open source projects I've never seen or used anything like that.
(And I'm really not against iNaPpRoPriAtE words; I think they're not something bad to use and I often find it ridiculous how they're frowned upon in US culture, e.g. movie ratings. But I still want to keep my code neutral / professional.)
I don't think they mean profanity in the code. I think they mean profanity uttered by the programmers while writing code.
I see; I've seen quite some memes about swear words in code, therefore I thought about that. But makes sense, thanks. (I can't relate to that either though.)
