    RustConf 2020 closing keynote by Sian Griffin that dives into Pokemon Blue glitches, notably Missingno and arbitrary-code-execution tricks. It uses them to explain how memory unsafety works and how memory-safe languages like Rust prevent such bugs.

    HN points to it as a fun, technically deep talk that makes memory-safety bugs vivid through a beloved game.

      I loved the in-depth technical discussion in this video. If you're into this sort of thing, I highly recommend this pokemon/missingno discussion: this video

      I really enjoyed the RustConf 2020 Closing Keynote: this video It details how the Poikemon missingo glitches work. (In the context of how memory safe languages would prevent them)
