When saying "we would try to avoid working with read-only memory 
and pointers directly", I mean the language I'm going to create. 
So yeah, there will be no code from 10 years ago, I'm pretty sure

Aside from the joke, I will keep the fact the a lot of people 
will work in the same project so having as many protections as
