The BASIC 10Liner competition wants you to know that there is a growing movement of hackers who recognize the bloat and see, with crystal clarity, where things kind of went wrong ...

".. and time and again it leads to amazingly elegant, clever, and sometimes delightfully crazy solutions. Over the past 14 editions, more than 1,000 BASIC 10Liners have been created — each one a small experiment, a puzzle, or a piece of digital creativity .."

That website seems to be gone now, unless it’s supposed to redirect to a sketchy German wix ad…

The website is there as of this comment. Yes there's a wix ad, but it seems normal (it just points to a wix sign up page) and not sketchy to me.

It's redirecting to homeputerium.de and seems to have nothing to do with what they're referring to.

Yall can't spend more than 5 seconds looking at the UI before giving up?

One of the only UI components on the homepage is a list of years you can click to see the entries.

Pretty sure I made it clear I looked at it, and looks like a domain squatter with no relation to the original comment. Why would I click around further?

Edit: Also y'know what? Those years aren't there on page load. They zoom in a few seconds later. I may not have even seen them, just Wix and then scrolled down to the German text that apparently refers to a school computer lab.

.. a pity you missed it, in case you did, because the Basic 10 Liner competition is really, really cool.

The tragic result of attention span atrophy and deskilling.
