  1. It's not just the obfuscation... by LikwidCirkel · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I find this very impressive, not so much for the obfuscation, but for packing so much functionality into a small bit of code....

  2. Ray tracer + web server + image encoder + clock by hydrofix · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I found this one a pretty mind-blowing entry. When compiled and run, it creates a web server at http://localhost:8224, which can be opened in a browser to display a ray-traced 3D scene of steel ball bearings on a checker-pattern surface, arranged to display the current time. Quoting the description:

    The program wears many hats (not literally). It is
    * a web server
    * a PNG encoder
    * a ray tracer
    * a clock

    Unlike the PC emulator entry, it does not require a binary blob and all the code and data fit within the 4 kilobyte limit.
