CoreGraphics often emphasizes it's ability to draw PDF, I guess that has to do with the Display PostScript lineage as well.

What would be the particular difficulty with intrusive linked lists?

It's the same in Haskell, Erlang and Elixir.

Bing also doesn't do "site:" queries properly it seems.

Erlang processes indeed do cooperative multitasking under the hood, something like yielding control to the scheduler roughly every 1000 function calls.

They are not relevant, the author made a totally irrational choice by benchmarking under Windows, not realizing the Deck is marketed as a Linux machine first and foremost, and they should be ashamed of themself.

One thing I love about Elixir's syntax is that virtually everything is a call, take the if statement: if condition do IO.puts "true" :yes else IO.puts "false" :no end is just a call to th

Depending on the size of your component that can't be built in Erlang, you may be able to use NIF and throw it on the dirty scheduler.

Not to mention that no design is absolutely safe, and if security enclaves like Pluton get exploited to run backdoor, it'll be a lot harder for end user to detect.
