UI programming is one domain where it's important to know this.
- sagichmal 7y agoYes, that's fair. My domain is backend. (I use and love fish shell for many years now; thank you.)
- kllrnohj 7y agoSame with graphics/game programming, particularly as some APIs (looking at you, OpenGL) are entirely built on thread-local state.
- eximius 7y agoEven there, you only care that you aren't running on a particular thread, just NOT on one particular thread. You still pass it to an executor that has it's own thread pool and shouldn't be terribly concerned with the particular thread.
