A #langsec take on berthub.eu/articles/posts…:

Okay, so basically the reason mRNA vaccines work is 1) a parser differential between how the immune system interprets an unfamiliar token (the 🔱 nucleoside) and how ribosomes interpret it, 2/
and a subtle semantic bug arising from disparate handling of different representations of an ambiguously representable parse result. The language of mRNA is nondeterministic, and that’s exploitable.

@PowerDNS_Bert’s explanation is really good and you should go read it.
