- Alupis 10y agoIt's not just about harming your machine - it can harm your* data, or data passing through your* system! * Where "your" can mean you, your employer, your customer, another company, etc.

- emodendroket 10y agoHow could a system that executed arbitrary code ever make such guarantees? I mean sure, if there were a magical thing that only ever produced correct code for what you wanted to do I guess people would use it.
