I know, that’s what I said his essay was about: Lisp knowledge would have prevented 9/11 and can prevent future hijacking attacks. Thanks for providing additional details - it's a treat to re-read his thoughts on 9/11
- kazinator 3y agoLikewise, knowledge of effective hijacking prevention techniques could be relevant in defensive program and system organization. I don't think his point is very good because array overruns in a heap can be exploitable. Lisps (and other kinds of run-times) don't necessarily separate code from data in their heaps.
- wahnfrieden 3y agoI agree the point is trash! It's interesting that he feels shame about the article enough to delist it, but still believes he has a useful point enough to leave it up without linking to it
