IOCCC Winners Announced

Posted by Hemos on from the begin-the-headache dept.

Arachn1d writes "The IOCCC has finally announced the winners of the 2004 contest.
With winners this year including a mini-OS and a ray-tracer, the submissions should be interesting indeed - if you can make sense of them. According to the page, the actual code for the winners should be up mid-october."

    Newbie C programmers get all into this kind of crap. They think it makes them look smarter or something. It really doesn't, it makes them look like newbies. I guess they get a rush from thinking that noone else is smart enough to read their code, like they're some kind of elite genious or something.

    I think the same thing every time I hear about this contest. Truth is, who is dumb enough to take the time to read code like that?
