I think concise is underrated, not terse necessarily, just minimal code devoid of distracting optimisations and architecture. It's so nice to come across those < 100 line _working_ implementations that you can focus on and internalise as a working model of the algorithm, I've found Rosetta Code a good place to find these (of varying quality though).

I'm not from that era of code listings in magazines but I really like idea and format of your site, earmarked for some bedtime reading :) please write more.

Thanks! That was exactly my intent. I added links to jsbin now, so it should be easy to quickly experiment with the code.

I have a few ideas (http server, text compression, blockchain) but I'd like to hear some from you.

Any preference on what you would like to see in the future?
