Started reading The Art of Multiprocessor Programming last night, and dang I miss programming close to the metal. This using Promises and ending up with weird queue conflicts because there's no real plan for concurrency sticks.

Thank you! Looking at that a bit I’ll drop by Copperfield’s and have them order it for me...

I don't do any C++, but I've been really enjoying https://www.amazon.com/Art-Writing-Efficient-Programs-
optimizations/dp/1800208111 (The Art of Writing Efficient Programs: An advanced programmer's guide to
efficient hardware utilization and compiler optimizations using C++ examples. Terrible title). It's got good
explanations of pipelining, predictive branching, caching, and also talks about making concurrent data
structures (when locks / spinlocks / CAS are appropriate), and a ton![[Wiki]](/adbanners/lookingglass.png){kind=small}
of microbenchmarks.
