Pardon my ignorance but why is this a big deal? Debuggers can attach to running processes and pyrasite can inject code into running processes so for a language like python, it makes sense that you would be able to fetch either the resident bytecode or the code itself. What am I missing?
- pepve 10y agoYou're not missing anything. But a bunch of us didn't figure it out before and we're just now learning about it. So we're excited, we're learning something new! (Please, please, don't be condescending to people who are learning something new.)
