well when the magical quantum computing show drops, this will be obsolete. threading is so 2 dimensional thinking.
i hate the overall design concept of threading. it's not just Python that's bad at it, it's evident in most languages that thread management is not bad because of the implementation, it's bad because systemically the design of process threads is clumsy and not at all simple or graceful.
- secondary_op 3y agoPossible discussion around this blog post and whole premise of it is anyway byproduct and misleading. Without knowing, mentioning and thinking before CPU cores, about CPU vector instructions, how properly access memory cache layers and align data without cache misses, how to design data structures for this. Without all this and more, it is all just like to chase one's tail; to mill the wind; to plough the sand.
