Here is what I found out; always inherit from a class slightly higher from the standard base class.
IIRC, there were standard robot types you could extend. But the real *limitations* were in the standard type. I remeber inheriting from the parent of the standard class, and adding capabilities to it.
I eventually got bored with it when I couldn't figure java's type system (I am coming from C++) I remember trying to "stalk" one other robot, and keeping his coords in static member list, then tried to predict his next position and fire at him (taking distance into account.) but somehow, I could make the static members "persist" as they were supposed, and had them get corrupted rather easily.

As far as masm is concerned, it doesn't support the instruction set for newer machines. Nasm is better in this field an is Free Software. However, if you are communicating with the device through the processor I/O operations (the old %al=port, %edx=pointer to R/S data) then you can still use masm. Or you can just hand assemble the newer instructions and inline them in your source code as a series of defines:
;; using an imaginary ADD operation, provided by the VPU mov dest1, [operand1] mov dest2, [operand2] . . gfx_add db GFX_ESC, GFX_ADD . .
;; then in your.data section, define the macros above ;; and give them their byte values
Just inline your constants as defines, within your code, and the assembler will just go over it (it will do a minor string to binary conversion, no further assembling.)

Long answer: What you are asking for does not need an entire language, just a library. Get the best library out there, and scan through list of its "binding" languages, then pick the one you are most comfortable with.
Short answer: Common Lisp (CLISP + CLOCC + emacs + ilisp) is a killer.
Your "speed" priority, and the binary processing bit, got me almost sold, and then I saw O'Caml!!
You quiche eating wanker, how COULD you forget assembly? Isn't that what programming is all about?

If these wankmaticians knew how the world operated, they would not have invented recursion let alone APPROVED of inductions as a sane, corner stone princible in their so called "art". Induction is only possible as long as the the "counter" register can hold your index, and recurssion is the crackwhore narcessistic twin sister of iteration (there is nothing she does, iteration can't do with a well placed label and a jump.)
Listen to me son, read Quine, Boole and DeMorgan, get the manual to your processor, and "script" at the level of the ONE TRUE ABSTRACTION LAYER.

Canibalism makes perfect sense. If the purpose of one's life is to pass on the better genes, then it makes sense if those with better genes are able to hunt/manipulate those inferrior ones.
If it is all about passing genes, and continuing the survival of the fittest, then there is no need to distinguish lesser humans from other species.
As we exhaust or natural food resources (assuming we can't somehow control our population through nukes or disease, or if we don't find other planets to host the exploding population.) then it is OK to eat weaker humans.
As long as we abide by the rules of nature, and only consume each other, based on strnegth and intelligence (i.e. no bias, based on superficial criteria like religion or nationalism.)
