auto_ptr was effectively split into std::unique_ptr and std::shared_ptr. The problem was that before C++11, there wasn't a way to distinguish between copy assignment and move assignment.

You can make a Turing machine that contains self-destruct circuitry which destroys all moving parts upon halting. The resulting pattern will be a (pseudo) still life.

I don't know much about lighting, but looking at the source code of the shaders might give a clue. https://modrinth.com/discover/shaders has a lot of shaders that change the lighting. In other parts of the rendering pipeline, there are some very impressive mods utilizing GPU magic. One of them is Voxy (https://modrinth.com/mod/voxy), one that massively increases render distance with mesh shaders and level-of-detail based rendering.
