That is a great strategy. It gets easier over time though. My tipp is to still join smoking friends, but just don't smoke. Makes you robust against the temptation longer term.

Any language can be sandboxed on the VM level. It's a property of it's implementation. So you can say that Lua has no sandbox friendly implementation right now.

For example, termination you can solve by unwinding the stack in efficiently polled safepoints. You need to take down the entire sandbox-capable Lua VM instance but you can.
