Reception
The Sydney Morning Herald called it "a shambles, confused in concept and sloppy in script direction."[3]
gollark: It's actually WORSE than useless in some ways because the "send to ID" thing doesn't ACTUALLY only send it to that ID and the ID on rednet messages can be faked, thus false sense of security.
gollark: Rednet is effectively a thin and useless wrapper over it.
gollark: No, use the actual modem API.
gollark: If so, why bother with *running* it when you could just parse the bytecode and read out the constant?
gollark: Hmm, if it's constant folded, is that *before* it gets turned into bytecode?
