gollark: On Switchcraft I actually have a system which detects people complaining about it and logs it to the incident report system as blasphemy.

gollark: <@!222424031368970240> If you're trying to make a sandbox which can't be broken even if you know it's there and are deliberately trying to remove it here are some things to watch out for- `getfenv`- `os.queueEvent` (if you run code which does basically any IO outside of the sandbox/with access to non-sandbox functions)- `debug`- `load` (it has some weird environment quirks)- `io` (due to, again, environment weirdness, depending on how you load the new FS API it might still use the regular one)- potential meddling with global APIs like `string` and/or metatables, to confuse your sandboxing codeand to hide it you probably also want to worry about- `debug`- `string.dump`- `error` (you can generate stack tracebacks in a really convoluted way using it, which could allow detecting the sandbox)- `error` (in some very convoluted way you can generate stack tracebacks using this and thus realize
gollark: Proper sandboxing is extremely hard. But if you want to protect against people/things not actively attempting to break it you can do quite well.
gollark: What happened to make you want to avoid programming anyway?
