You're no C programmer, Zack. Anyone who's done any real C programming has implemented their own malloc.

(Is this an in-joke I'm missing or something?)

It's polite ribbing amongst work colleagues where an engineer at Cloudflare (@zackbloom) offers praise to a colleague (@kentonv) for a mighty project (libc replacement) and Cloudflare's CTO (@jgrahamc) jokes that the project isn't hardcore enough ;)
tldr; Appears very much an in-joke between work colleagues at Cloudflare :)

Correct. Not so much an in-joke. I was just surprised Zack thought implementing your own libc was amazing. But I'm an old fart C/assembly programmer so YMMV.

Having the top-comment doesn't lie, THE PEOPLE ARE WITH ME!
Also, is there a badge or sash I can get somewhere saying "Not a Real C Programmer"?

How about a badge for "I got schooled publicly by my CTO."

Ha. I wasn't really schooling him, just ribbing him. He knows damn well he could run circles around me in JavaScript.
