Carmen de Prodicione Guenonis

Carmen de Prodicione Guenonis ("Song of the Treachery of Ganelon") is an anonymous poem in medieval Latin, written in the first half of the 12th century. Composed in elegiac couplets by an unskilled versifier, it is a version of the legendary history of the Battle of Roncevaux Pass. This is the same story that is told in the Old French Chanson de Roland and in several other versions and languages. The Latin poem seems to be based on a hearing or reading of an Old French chanson de geste, in the same tradition as the written Chanson but differing from it in many details, perhaps around the year 1120.

gollark: I've heard that Apple's Swift does it "properly", no idea about anything else.
gollark: I think most languages which don't have string handling explicitly designed for new Unicode thingies will have that sort of issue.
gollark: If JS was replaced with some other language but `script` tags and whatnot were still used, we would still have the exploits, probably.
gollark: It's mostly not really a JS problem.
gollark: I mean, the main reason JS is used in websites is just that you couldn't use anything else until... about three years ago with WASM, and that has a bunch of problems, more than its actual merits as a language, but I haven't heard much about it being particularly exploit-prone.
