It is still a thing, just not a very common one since the debugger in VS has become more ergonomic and powerful. But windbg is still the king here, for the most advanced analysis of both managed and unmanaged code and it isn't even close to be honest once you learn the arcane commands and incatations

But why not do it right the first time. This is an obvious performance pitfall for people that want to adopt this feature. It is bizarre to me after the last decade has been dedicated to performance improvments.

Allowing hallucinated content or citations into your work is an act of carelessness and disregard for the time of people that are going to read your paper and it should be policed as such.

And flatly, if a person can't be bothered to check their damn work before uploading it, why should anyone else invest their time in reading it seriously?

Why on earth did they decide boxing by default was a sensible design decision...

We have been pushing toward higher performance for years and this is a performance pitfall for unions would are often thought of as being lighter weight than inheritance hierarchies.

F# just stores a field-per-case, with the optimization that cases with the same type are unified which is still type safe.

Well off the top of my head...

Active patterns, computation expressions, structural typing, statically resolved type parameters, explicit inlining, function composition, structural equality, custom operators and much richer generators.

I understand this is an attack, but I find myself mildly concerned that the model is "aware" enough to behave differently in the assumed context of a alignment test. Isn't this an inherent thread of dishonesty?

I am very familiar with it! My current project at work is taking an Orleans based payment processing system to production
