Here's[^] my MS-DOS port if anyone's interested.

And it's "Crowther", not "Crowder". The author of the article seems to imply if it's not on Github, it's not open source. <sigh> Please let's stop posting Vice wannabe tech related links in The Insider News.

Oh God, it gets worse... the Github repo is a port of the original C&W version.
Someone please remove this thread from Insider News. Are we that starved for content?

Bookmarked that great resource, thanks. I remember my team wasting many many hours mapping the cave, ca 1975, on a Interdata Fortran IV port, probably from a PDP-11 version.
Cheers,

I've reached out to the author in the hope of educating him. Hopefully he'll respond.
(Clearly this has touched a nerve in me.)

Just how many darned developers are there in the world? All right, everyone. Count off.
I guess there's at least 12,956,173. Everyone who's anyone.

Efforts to calculate the number of damned developers have failed to date; while it is suspected that (presumable) estimates in Hell remain a closely guarded secret.
«When I consider my brief span of life, swallowed up in an eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there; for there is no reason why here rather than there, now rather than then.» Blaise Pascal

A team of researchers find 8,000 bugs in pacemaker codes. "Heartbreaker, your time has come"

That's just great.
There is somthin' really wrong with the one who like to hack a pacemaker.

What better device to hack? Imagine a ransom attack that demands the hackee pay some Bitcoin every month or pay the highest price.

Maybe they were just trying to leave them open to playing Doom on? A toaster, a thermometer, a pacemaker... Logical progression, right?
