What I'm talking about? "Yes, but when pre-compiling, you implicitly trust the code." Citation needed. It's not true at all.

- geofft 8y agoCan you give one example of a case where code is compiled AOT and not trusted during compile time? (Your example of Dart was challenged, and I agree that it is not an example, so a more detailed explanation of why it is an example would count.)
- bjourne 8y agoWhy on earth wouldn't Dart count? It is AOT-compiled and meant to be run untrusted inside a Dart VM inside a web browser. That was the intention of the project even if it was cancelled and the VM deprecated. For more examples, see ActionScript on iOS, TFA itself or any of the myriad of projects trying ti AOT-compile JavaScript.
