It's a new blog post by Corey Richardson, discussing how to
mitigate memory corruption due to stack overflows.
Very nice article, it presents a interesting hybrid strategy.
It seems Rust designers have understood some of the
disadvantages of the segmented stacks Walter wrote about.
They removed segmented stacks completely now.
"The new runtime does not implement segmented stacks and it never
will."
