gollark: Oh, or rewrite it in Haskell and use as many monads as possible.
gollark: Well, you could make it more annoying by having your code execute entirely out of order.
gollark: This is not really, as far as I know, practical for machine-code-y systems, because they don't need to go through a function call or whatever to load new code for execution.
gollark: What I had to do one time to reverse some obfuscated code on potatOS was hook `load` to log newly loaded code to a file, it's called "Protocol Epsilon debug mode" and is still in there.
gollark: I'm assuming you don't mean "polymorphism" in the sense of "functions which can take/return multiple types"?
