um self destruct can only be instigated by some officers and has to be concured with others and command codes have to be given. unless your talking about something else???
Nope. Completely standard. Didn’t even take off the safety.
LAFORGE: Computer, in the Holmesian style, create a mystery to confound Data with an opponent who has the ability to defeat him.
COMPUTER: Define parameters of programme.
PULASKI: What does that mean?
LAFORGE: Computer wants to know how far to take the game.
PULASKI: You mean it’s giving you a chance to limit your risk.
LAFORGE: No, the parameters will be whatever is necessary in order to accomplish the directive. Create an adversary capable of defeating Data.
I still feel this is like a coder messing with the code and introducing a bug. Pulaski does not get what he is doign but laforge being an engineer is familiar with messing around like that.

If it’s that easy to bypass safety protocols, that’s a big issue.
Starfleet runs on Linux, confirmed.
Even centuries later, GNU Hurd still isn’t viable.
