The z in scalaz
The z in scalaz means this: it was early 2008 and I was working for a Java consultancy and so of course, I used the most appropriate tool for the job: scala. But it had *terrible* libraries, so I offered to fix those while also meeting my other objectives. Turns out that the Scala guys were extremely hostile to even half-decent libraries (and still are to this day). I still struggle to wrap my head around this sometimes.
Anyway, so I thought, well fuck it, I will just keep them to myself for now. My (awesome) employer had already agreed that we'd probably open-source such a thing, but I was concerned most about my primary goal. So then it came time to "name" this library. I had named it "scalax" simply so that I did not have the inclination to think of a proper name. Then I found out that such a library was being developed and with my internal name! Whatever, I thought.
So I looked at this scalax library, hoping that I could just abandon my efforts and jump on board with everyone else -- they too had figure

Big list of http static server one-liners
