    - It all depends on how you think about your problem, and your specific requirements
  - Where can I learn about Object Oriented Programming (OOP)? - https://metacpan.org/dist/Marlin/view/lib/Marlin/Manual/Beginning.pod
  - Why don't you include Catalyst, Moose, etc? - My time is limited.
  - What is prompt injection - It is semantic mimicry: adversarial instructions that resemble legitimate prompts, which trigger self-compromise
  - Why is prompt injection dangerous - LLMs process token sequences, but no mechanism exists to mark token privileges
  - ⊕ Notes for: Why is prompt injection dangerous
    - This might make it unsolvable in today's LLMs
    - https://www.schneier.com/crypto-gram/archives/2025/1115.html#cg4
  - What specifically is the problem with prompt injection - In training, we face poisoned datasets and backdoored models
  - ⊕ Notes for: What specifically is the problem with prompt injection
    - During operation, we face a contaminated context and persistent compromise
    - We need semantic integrity: verifying not just data but interpretation, not just content but context, not just information but understanding
    - We can add checksums, signatures, and audit logs
    - But how do you checksum a thought? How do you sign semantics? How do you audit attention?
