concise code vs code longer than necessary.
Don't write code like the obfuscated C code contest. Don't spend too much time modifying working code to make it shorter, especially if there's no end-user perceivable speed increase.

Kilo Lisp: A Kilo Byte-Sized Lisp System
Just found one after replying to another comment on this story.
https://github.com/ioccc-src/winner/blob/master/1989/jar.2.c (accompanying explanation: https://github.com/ioccc-src/winner/blob/master/1989/jar.2.h... )
It apparently works somewhat after a few minor tweaks.
Another one that I've bookmarked some months earlier: https://github.com/rui314/minilisp

An HTTP server in a single .c file
One of 2004 IOCCC winners (2004/hibachi [1]) was a CGI and vhost capable HTTP server. It is one of a few winning entries that ever came with its own ./configure, and violated so many guidelines but not a single rule, making judges pretty upset.
