In my continuing quest to think of things that are terrible security loophole ridden ideas - I've made a bot that can interpret python code on Discord. What could possibly go wrong aside from literally everything.

All of these are valid

>> print("Hello world")

>> `print("Hello world")`

>> ```
print("Hello world")
```

>> ```python
print("Hello world")
```

There are few things that you can't really do in this python interpreter. One thing is that printing is really weird. Printing is done to a local variable called printed, if you want to acess the output you'll have to do a top-level print. This is a side-effect of RestrictedPython.

For example:

def print_num(num):
  print(num)
  return printed

print(print_num(num))

a bit awkward, I know, but there's not much I can do about it.

It's on my mind, but I don't think it'll be possible without a much heaver layer of virtualization. Let me know if you have any ideas.

So, I'm not naive, I know how dangerous this stuff is, so I haven't just plugged user input into an eval or something. I'm using the library RestrictedPython to provide a (hopefully) safe execution environment and set up a 10 second timeout to avoid hangups on infinite loops. I'm really hoping I didn't miss anything, but please open and issue if I did.
