Notes for whomever might find it interesting :)

I started wondering what what behind those chatbots that you see on all kinds of websites.

My favorite part of this is the fact that the Haskell solution is considered "too clever".

I think doing things like this in a language like C can serve as a reminder that it is, very much posible, to do actual work with minimal tools - In my case emacs and a clang.

On the first part, yes there are pleanty of wire-compatable redis clones. And while those are interesting, its your second part that I find interesting as well.

The idea of having a strong templating engine with a fast storage backend able to use dynamic content to deliver efficiently renderes websites with minimal hardware.

I like that idea.

I'm considering open sourcing parts of the system -- at its core this is a hashtable with wrapped in a tcp server. At its core a system like this is fairly simple :)

I went over the guidelines and cannot figure out which rule I broke?

"You write that it would be more useful to re-post something else" -- Is your critique just that you didnt like the quality of what I wrote? or is there something more tangable?

I'm sorry to hear that it read like that to you. I was "slightly" inspired by reading "The Tale of Despereaux" to my kid and was trying to capture the tone of the book. :)
