The ingenuity of Minecraft players never ceases to amaze me
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Just someone willing to build a full ARM emulator with VGA and IO in redstone. Once you can get Linux booting, you can start writing kernel modules to support the various redstone IO devices. Once that’s all hooked up, you try compiling Java. Once Java is running you’re off. It’d probably be terribly slow though, unless you made a redstone optimized CPU. Then you’d need to get Linux building on that.
Rock on, I have implemented the components of ARM, but at an undergrad homework assignment level, not a “emulate ARM” level. Am I correct to say this class is called computer architecture? Linux is obviously Operating Systems, and “compiling Java” is Compilers—I think this is a 3 semester project if we can align schedules and keep the team together

Wouldn't be too hard to add some hamming encoding
You're going to need redundancy of some sort. The Enderman can just steal your read (head)block.

The linux boot sequence in a redstone ARM CPU might take 3 semesters by itself...
Write code in vim, run it in Minecraft!
