+I just noticed that the programming snippets don't show up in when I'm set to Singapore or Malaysia or China or any of the countries in the Safesearch list. You need to check which region you're set to. By default this windows laptop that was bought in Singapore was set to Singapore. But in Singapore, SafeSearch is turned on (zzz).
 <blockquote>From [http://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-us/bing/ff808447.aspx Microsoft's official statement]: "Bing offers SafeSearch settings, which allow most users to set the type of filtering of adult content that they would like applied to their search results. By default, in most markets all searches are set to moderate, which restricts visually explicit search results but does not restrict explicit text. Because of local customs or cultural norms, certain countries may impose legal restrictions on the display of adult content. As a result, what constitutes adult content might vary depending on the market.

-There's much more to be said about this ridiculous "default" setting but to be honest it takes very little effort to set yourself to another region. You just need to switch region to United Kingdom under Settings in order to get out of the Strict Safesearch so you can also see Hackerrank's helpful additions, which are EXECUTABLE!
