From what I understand a data race on a simple built in feature like an interface pointer can result in a bad address / type pair, which can cause memory safety issues on any future access. I don't think you can get the…

Unsuitable? Probably depends on your use case. Even a normal end user system shouldn't constantly kick your threads out unless it has enough other things to do to to keep every core busy.
Didn't they hype up one of the earlier ChatGPT versions as "essentialy skynet"? For them this has always been basic marketing.

Only if you use floating point in your filesystem checks, which I really hope nobody does. How do you even store 3.14 bytes.
Any project depending on Integer identity had years of warning that this change would come. Also given implicit primitive conversions and object pooling Integer isn't exaclty a prime candidate for object identity to…
It explicitly allows research, tests and third party tools. I am sure that any contributer can still find plenty of use for AI with that.

At least the GL part isn't something that has a widely understood meaning and I don't think any of the competing APIs are generally refered to as Graphics Libraries either.
How is Minecraft doing these days?

By default XML is either UTF-8 or 16, any other encoding has to be identified either through metadata or an explicit declaration in the document itself. If you are guessing it is because someone failed to properly store…

Folded paper has some structure, so not as much?
