They did. All over the Internet.

[Psyonisis]

This is my first time hearing about it. Sorry, I don't read slashdot.

[Sharessa]

First time I heard about it. Of course I neither care about Microsoft nor what goes on across the Interweb.

In related news, a crashed alien craft was found near Microsoft's Redmond HQ, and a short, squat, ugly cycloptic green alien was seen wandering the site by keen birdwatchers...

while(we feel like it){

output();
} // end loop

public static final DAYS_REQUIRED_FOR_DUMPCORE = 7;

while (weFeelLikeIt)
{ 
    input(); 
    callMagicElves(); 
    runAdsForUpgrades(); 
    sleep(rand(20)); 
    
    if (work == reallyImportant)
    {
        dumpCore();
    }
    
    if (daysSinceLastBackup > DAYS_REQUIRED_FOR_DUMPCORE)
    {
        dumpcore();

Tsk, fod's coding style needs some work.

[Fredrik]

What makes you think Fod's code was supposed to be Java? (It's valid C)

It could have been either, but the point was in the readability.

#define week *7

Mmm preprocessor.
