FoundTheVegan, 
Fake for any of those wondering.
But keeping employees based on how many lines of code they have written, which he did, is essentially the same logic.
Ilovethebomb, Ernest Hemingway was paid by the word, which shows in his work. I imagine this pay structure would have a similar effect on how people code.
FlyingSquid, 
I’m not a coder, but wanting code that isn’t streamlined seems like a bad plan to me.
Lamps, Please correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought that saying was for Dickens? Wasn’t Hemingway famously terse?
nilloc, I thought it was about Steven King, but it might just be all the cocaine he did.
AA5B, I would do so poorly there, in many ways …. I love those days when my lines of code is negative
TheBlue22, There are 2 things in coding that are incredibly satisfying for me:
- Compiling after implementing a fuckton of features
- Deleting a massive amount of code after refactoring for a while
whereBeWaldo, My ass would just write functions that take a huge amount of parameters and assign one in each line
HawlSera, Oh the amount of redundant code I would write

TimewornTraveler, let there be elden ring
and then fat coinpurse
Thcdenton, Time to forkbomb
havokdj, Better yet, mine monero on as many machines as possible for extra profit
kugiyasan, Cool, I will be able to solve those advent of code challenges without optimising my code!
minamoog, 
gentoo users stay winning
therealjcdenton, Sweet all that time playing TF2 will finally pay off!
Bruncvik, 
I wish my company did the same, instead of the IT giving out to me for running two virtual machines on my laptop all the time…
TheBlue22, Time to play modded minecraft during company time
Conyak, I assume this is fake since no one at X is getting a Christmas bonus.
prime_number_314159, “You wasted trillions of cycles, then ask me for Money?!?” - Elon, probably
lseif, it was edited from “salary” to “christmas bonus”
ExLisper, cat /dev/urandom | grep “dickhead”
