I had the same experience, lol. I started with Crime and Punishment expecting thinly veiled philosophy where each character is a mouthpiece for one of the author's thought processes. Granted there's some of that, but I wasn't expecting such an exciting murder drama. Went into Karamazov expecting an exciting murder drama, and got the type of Russian literature I initially expected Crime and Punishment to be! Really it's a question of expectations.

Truly the biggest prize of the IOCCC is getting your name listed next to geniuses like the author of nanochess.

So every time my ISP changes my IP, facebook pitches a fit, makes me solve a dozen captchas and authenticate on an existing login session, but in the meantime Meta' sother website doesn't even require using the registration email for a password reset?

Pathetically hypocritical to use AI to write this blog post when generic copy editors have been hit way harder by AI than programmers.

15 years ago, Enterprise FizzBuzz [1] was supposed to be satire. These days, it's not quite complex enough to capture "modern" web dev.

For a long time, windows had two options:

1. Update and restart and prompt for bitlocker password and update and restart and prompt for bitlocker password and restart

2. Update and restart and prompt for bitlocker password and update and restart and prompt for bitlocker password and shut down (and restart)

Finally, they fixed the last bit of option 2

Heck, why not just title it "a web server with no library function calls" and call an array of bytes as a function? Then everybody would be able to see what it really is, which is an unremarkable shellcode embedded directly in a C program. I feel like the "printf" was only included so that people would have something to recognize in the title.
