- chicken101, on 10/11/2007, -9/+109He is a nerd, but at least he embraces it.
- ryodoan, on 10/11/2007, -4/+98@ Dbug, I hope you realize the irony in your statement.
- MrLunar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+84"He found a crop field and mowed the crop"
I don't think the owner is gonna be too happy. - DougPenn, on 10/11/2007, -4/+73Shoulda used LOLCAT code.
- samsims, on 10/11/2007, -4/+72@whattimeisit
WTF? - TheBobbyx, on 10/11/2007, -0/+67Maybe he just wants a reply.
Hello! - lawndarts, on 10/11/2007, -2/+67...I hope I'm not the only one who realized that it is upside down.
- UKsHaDoW, on 10/11/2007, -3/+55The domain world was already taken?
- nadadingsda, on 10/11/2007, -1/+45damn.. I bet the Transformers can read this
- ElbridgeGerry, on 10/11/2007, -4/+46HAI
▌CAN HAS STDIO?
▌VISIBLE "HAI WORLD!"
KTHXBYE - mattmcm, on 10/11/2007, -2/+38Ah, but Dbug can't block himself, so he's immune to his tactics.
- brasso, on 10/11/2007, -0/+36But if its just like a barcode, then its not really a program, right?
- SteaminTmann, on 10/11/2007, -0/+32@whattimeisit -
This ain't Fark, dude.... - 15charmaxwtf, on 10/11/2007, -0/+27So that's where all the farming subsidies go.
- Gabskij, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23"Why?" is totally the wrong question. Any true nerd knows that "Why not?" is what drives us.
I don't know where this quote is from.
""" You see the world as it is and ask "Why?", I see the world as it could be and ask "Why not?" """ - Murdats, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23digg cuts off everything after greater then symbols, so the other half of his program is eated by digg
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -3/+24Someone will eventually bitch on how many starving children you could save with those empty squares.
- Akaji, on 10/11/2007, -1/+22csfreakazoid:
"Your an idiot."
Meditate on that for a few moments. - dbug, on 10/11/2007, -14/+34Everyone who blocks people and then writes about it in the comments gets blocked by me. Blocked and blocked!
- wellyuk, on 10/11/2007, -1/+20Err.. why not?
- beavioso, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19I don't think it's a message for aliens. A message to them would be like "Hello Space Invaders" or "Hello Universe".
- zombiedepot, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18I thought it meant big, as in lines of code.
- grazny, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18Sucks to be the farmer that wakes up to that *****..
- d4rkarch0n, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16@wellyuk
Yes... but that wouldn't be funny, would it? - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14I don't even see the code anymore. All I see is blond, brunette, redhead...
- Gectow, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13well someones crap at tetris
- SirSwiftblu, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14The triple quotes were a nice touch.
- NatieB, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13Thank you for your insightful comment. You have added greatly to the discussion.
- nathron, on 10/11/2007, -4/+16HEAD ASPLODE
- tadunne, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13Sounds more like hello world encoded data file rarther than a "hello world" program ;P
- derekivey, on 10/11/2007, -2/+12Inaccurate. Thats not a program thats just the text Hello, World...
- desu43fnoc, on 10/11/2007, -3/+13This isn't a program in executable computer code though. Its just a message written out in a matrix-type code (Semacode) which represents the letters Hello World, not the actual machine code for displaying it.
- dogstylee, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8Would have been far better if he wasn't so up himself to not do it in a vague dialect that nobody will ever understand if they see it. Everyone will think it's just a random pattern.
- Funky_, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8Where are the actual words "Hello" and "World" in your Hello World in C++?
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8Yah... sure...
Sorry to ruin it for everyone... here's the "icon" he used for the kml.

Burry me to keep the fun going. - atrais, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6From the title, I thought a guy wrote a 100.000 lines to produce the hello world output. Like Apple do.
- kolobcreek, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8Congratulations you're FIRED
- essjay, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9If only he'd written "Bugger off Mel Gibson" maybe we wouldn't have ended up with "Signs"...
- PSPDS, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Why did the guy not write the word and get it over with instead of putting it into code which looks like a bad dial up signal.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5for anyone that wants the non digg screwed version... from someone smart enough to not use "void main"...
#include "cstdio"
int main(){
printf("Hello, World!");
return 0;
}
14kb binary... doubt you'd ever get anything smaller then that with iostream. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3This must be the guy who wrote Vista.
- Ricapar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Yeah. I was hoping for a Hello World in assembly or something.
- derjames, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1A plague in those crops would be the equivalent to a virus...
- kcap122, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1google says its george bernard shaw. also maybe the triple quotes were to protect the text from digg posting code?
- gutistg, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Can you read it?
- Firehed, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1You don't need to be a programmer to recognize a barcode (or, in this case, a datamatrix - which is on pretty much anything shipped by UPS and FedEx to start).
- lifenstein, on 05/30/2009, -0/+1You can see the image in Google Maps or Google Earth - Just enter the following kmz url into the search box in Google Maps and Search.

Switch to 'Hybrid' mode to get some perspective.. - spambutcher, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2amusing - but what would've been cooler still is if he loaded the code into a lawnmower - then actually had it mow the resulting "hello world" result.
- Bamborzled, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2iostream.h doesn't even exist; any standard C++ libraries are supposed to have no extension whatsoever.
