Explores new lock statement patterns in .NET 9, comparing the new Lock class with traditional Monitor-based locking and showing performance benchmarks.
Introduces performance metrics and considerations for message-passing applications using the actor model, focusing on SObjectizer and C++.
Explains a subtle async/await problem with List.ForEach in .NET and provides a solution using a custom ForEachAsync extension method.
A Java programming challenge to process one billion rows of temperature data, focusing on performance optimization and modern Java features.
Introduces the new System.Threading.Lock type in .NET 9, a dedicated lock type that aims to be more explicit and potentially faster than using a plain object with the lock keyword.
Introduces MemoizR, a .NET library for declarative structured concurrency and dynamic lazy memoization, inspired by frontend patterns.
