For fun, sure. Small mistake can be big security nightmare

1000 lines are easier to secure than 5 million lines

“You can write software that has no obvious bugs or you can write software that obviously has no bugs.”

I think that was ewd?

Not if 1000 lines are written by you alone and not checked by anyone else vs 5 million lines of code written by thousands of people and checked by countless more. Linux is probably more secure than 1000 lines of C code from a junior developer.

Not if you’re the only author!

For a blog? If you don't put anything important on the server itself I can't imagine a hacker could do much. Maybe put a nasty image on your front page, or put their Bitcoin address pretending it's the place to send donations, but it would take a lot of time and effort to remain hidden for hardly any gain.

or take over your server?
