even worse, there might be something there like the exception vector table, in which case spurious writes become an attack vector. https://cansecwest.com/slides07/Vector-Rewrite-Attack.pdf

I wouldn't involve a 2nd person, A sealed envelope labeled "In case of actual or impending catastrophe" should suffice. Sending the alert would require a string of characters inside the envelope, Envelope should also contain

FWIW, i've compiled llvm/rust with 2G, I never ran out of ram compiling rust, but in llvm gnu-ld would run out of memory, using the gold linker fixes that, as well as the configuration flag for enabling separate debug info -DLLVM_

I suppose yes, I could see such a thing working in the style of "A unified approach to solving seven programming problems" perhaps 'naively' would be the right word

right, context did exist at that point but seems limited to filenames, and symbols afaict, obviously though you can obtain much more context in a statically typed environment

Identities do not mess anything up, the commonly employed implementations of identity however do... again check out modula-3 and more recently the paper at http://drops.dagstuhl.de/opus/volltexte/2015/5231

Exactly what I thought you were saying, and disagree with. I consider it fine to say "Objects require identity", without identity a fully encapsulated object is nothing more than an anonymous black hole. When you turn this around

I don't really agree as well, Modula-3 (although i'm not terribly familiar with the language) has partial revelation (a rather nuanced form of encapsulation), and branding where structural transparency does not preclude nominal id

at least they included a link to the independent paper replicating the results of the allegedly cooked data. Surprised me somewhat.
