It seems like you're interested in the topic of threads, particularly in the context of Apple's WWDC sessions. Here's some relevant information from the sessions:
-
What's new in Xcode 16: This session introduces the thread performance checker, which helps identify runtime issues related to thread performance. It pinpoints the exact line of code causing issues, even if they don't reproduce locally. This tool is particularly useful for debugging and optimizing code execution on different threads. You can learn more about this feature in the session chapter titled "Thread performance checker" starting at 09:07.

Migrate your app to Swift 6: This session discusses the importance of handling shared mutable state and data races in Swift 6. It emphasizes the need for data-race safety, which is verified at compile time in Swift 6. The session also covers how to manage global variables and ensure they are thread-safe, which is crucial for avoiding data races. You can explore these topics in the chapters "Shared mutable state in global variables" starting at 13:05 and "Delegate callbacks and concurrency" starting at 19:29.

A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design: This session highlights the importance of avoiding data races and introduces the concept of "sendable" values, which protect state from concurrent accesses. It also explains how actors in Swift can help manage shared mutable state safely. The chapter "Concurrency" starting at 18:33 provides more insights into these concurrency features.
These sessions provide a comprehensive overview of how Apple is addressing thread management and data-race safety in their development tools and languages.

Explore the Swift on Server ecosystem
Swift is a great language for writing your server applications, and powers critical services across Apple’s cloud products. We’ll explore tooling, delve into the Swift server package ecosystem, and demonstrate how to interact with databases and add observability to applications.
A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design
Learn the essential features and design philosophy of the Swift programming language. We’ll explore how to model data, handle errors, use protocols, write concurrent code, and more while building up a Swift package that has a library, an HTTP server, and a command line client. Whether you’re just beginning your Swift journey or have been with us from the start, this talk will help you get the most out of the language.
Migrate your app to Swift 6
Experience Swift 6 migration in action as we update an existing sample app. Learn how to migrate incrementally, module by module, and how the compiler helps you identify code that’s at risk of data races. Discover different techniques for ensuring clear isolation boundaries and eliminating concurrent access to shared mutable state.
