My point is that hacking can still be a fun and easy-going activity when one writes code for himself (almost) without regards to security and nasty things like that creeping in from the outside. I'm the king in my castle, although I'm fully aware of the fact that my castle might be ugly from the outside :)
Which is a relevant statement in the context of the OP seeking advice on *secure ways* of executing code in a restricted environment in exactly what way?
