Tcl really became “Enterprise-ready”[0] at this time.

> The Stardate time format had nothing to do with Sun. I added it to Tcl while working at Scriptics, as an easter egg for the then-upcoming Tcl2K Conference. One of the conference events was a competition to implement a standard-to-stardate conversion utility, using an arcane formula. Only one guy entered the event. He spent a couple hours agonizing over the implementation (as he was looking for a job at Scriptics, he was eager to impress) only to have the easter egg revealed afterwards. Of course he won the competition anyway. And he got the job, too. – Eric Melski

> `break rust;` causing the Rust compiler to emit an internal compiler error

Is this real?

Yes

> error: internal compiler error: It looks like you're trying to break rust; would you like some ICE?

Lovely, and the word game is just great.

This one in Haskell is coincidental, but used as a joke:

``` import Data.Function

main = do let it = fix error print it ```

On HN, you can add code blocks by indenting with 2 spaces:

  import Data.Function

  main = do
    let it = fix error
    print it
