D1 is still in use. Just ignore D1 only bugs if you don't use D1.
For learning to program, I almost feel like getting a sandbox set
up on the web would be better. The MIT project Scratch, for
example, is fantastic for teaching programming. Unless you're
talking about teaching in locations without internet

You can disable GC, for example by linking to gcstub (backed by

Yes. The schedulers are required to maintain some data (one being
a message queue) for each "thread" they spawn. If the data is
requested from a thread the scheduler doesn't own, it's required
to return a thread-local copy instead. In short, any manually

The problem was a circlular reference in some class that managed
