Re:Destroying C with 20 lines of Haskell: wc on Tuesday February 04, 2020 @08:47AM (#22235432)
Ah, the weekly "I beat C using X language".

I don't understand why LOC was even brought up. You can put all your code on a single line in most languages. The Github code linked even has 26 lines of Haskell which makes this even more nonsense.

Because the article title is extremely clickbaity and wrong. They fired four people because they were repeatedly breaking privacy policies and leaking documents.

Sounds like you've never owned a printer before...

So have a possible security hole with no active developers until a third party finds a vulnerability, then shut it down?

You would still require SRE support for keeping this thing up running. You would also open yourself up to a lot of risk, losing user trust and potential lawsuits if it ever was hacked.

Everything you wrote sounds like an elaborate troll but I'm assuming that you've just never worked on a large system before.

Why work for money when you can volunteer your time instead to the local community?
Thanks for elaborating.

You really think Google dropped their motto for a damn good reason? Really?
95% of small tech startups won't pay anywhere near what Google would offer.
