in reply to @nex3's post:
i've learned there is a certain strain of tech brain that absolutely will not accept any limitation of any kind, even if it would literally prevent the apocalypse
and that is why the modern world is the way it is
he is specifically asking for a way to write a variable assignment with a special "this one gets to violate encapsulation" flag, which, lmao
the funny thing is that .NET literally has a "this one gets to violate encapsulation" flag you can set on assemblies
"Yes and we did it specifically to stop you. Next question please."
I've been pleasantly surprised at how few complaints I have seen about the design of my language- reasonable or unreasonable- but I suspect this is mostly a consequence of the fact that very few people use it. :)
