"JCIP - Java Concurreny in Practice", finally was able to complete this monster and now I see the world differently. I had a aha moment, just like Neo in the Matrix.
"The Sandman: Kindly Ones" and "The Sandman: Wake", masterpieces from the master writer Neil Gaimann.
Reading "Never Split the Difference" which is about the art of negotiation and has been an enlightening read as of now. It argues negotiation isn't rational but is an affective exercise and I couldn't agree more.
- jerome-jh 7y agoWas the haha moment like what can be felt reading "The problem with threads" https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2006/EECS-2006-1.pdf https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2006/EECS-2006-... ?
- srijanshetty 7y agoI'll confess that I haven't read "The problem with threads", my aha moment was the existence of 'happens-before' relationships and the Java Memory Model which for a good part of my life, I didn't know about.
