On “hello guys, i want you to know that C has to fix VARGs syntax”
thats a scratch space that can be considered "big enough" for sane purposes, a small greasy place where limits dont matter. if anyone wants to complicate his life there is a way to control the failure, very easy - take the first pointer from the stack when program runs, add the stack size to it - finished, you have the limit.
also check his other talk where he contradicts himself [video \- by saying that first goes the worth then goes the security. count of variadics is more important!
