I'm pretty sure I read an article about some research team starting on exactly that project at least ten years ago. I may even have read about it on Slashdot.

Good to see that the Mexican government is focusing on what's important.

And your response was absurd. You don't rebuild a transmission in order to run a shop. You don't even rebuild a transmission as an engineer creating cars, you shop that out to an organization specializing in the extremely difficult task of designing and building transmissions. I wanted to avoid this waste of time, but here we are.

As for the rest of your comment about reasoning about performance, none of that requires the work you did. Again, neat project (for you), but completely unnecessary in general.

What general purpose computer exists that doesn't have a stack? Push/pop have been fundamental to all the architectures I've used.

They did, at least according to the article. But it's a low hurdle, and cops quickly figure out the script to bypass restrictions like that.

It's no different than the mishandling of trained drug sniffing dogs so that they alert at the handler's command, rather than at drugs/bombs/money/whatever. Countless cars are stripped at border crossing and the side of the road because a cop didn't like someone's attitude.

How would they hire enough manpower smart enough to do that?

I found it humorous that they simply call it 'the hamburger', and that they confused vertical with horizontal.

With the "Curiously Recurring Template Pattern", you affect behavior from the bottom up and from the top down.

To be honest, I don't know if it has value for most tasks people care about (outside of libraries, I mean). But it was fantastic for optimizing OOP-abstracted desktop applications. If you have some subset of functions that need to be called a lot, then avoiding virtual functions really helps.
