Like a carbon offset. For program code.

Is God willing to prevent phrogams, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing, to prevent phrogams?
Then he is malevolent.

Some people said the world doesn't have enough currency to buy the needed
bad code offsets to compensate for the world's bad code.

Oh I see, thanks. I see why you're being sarcastic, the site claiming
'paradise will come to us if we go code offset..." is just utopia, good
intention but unreal expectations.

Interesting if the Gov't could offer carbon credits or something for
code that has been significantly optimized for performance over previous
versions.

Is there actually a tangible difference in a person's electric bill (due
to less energy actually being consumed) when they run a low-CPU program
over the course of two hours vs. running a CPU-intensive program over
the course of two hours?
