It’s less insane than you might think:

I agree rust is probably better suited. Or Apple could make their own memory safe language. They’re clearly capable.

That's an interesting experiment, but that's all it is. The project relies on ASM/C/C++ to boot into a microkernel and to interpret and run the C#. But I suppose it would greatly reduce the attack surface of C/C++/ASM code.

I just wonder, for example, how a capable hardware abstraction layer would work in C#, interrupt handling, CPU and IO scheduling, etc.

Here is another experiment, this one being delivered into production,

You mean Swift?
