Fun nerd trivia: - A single CPU core runs multiple instructions concurrently, the CPU core just guarantees that it will appear AS IF the instructions were run serially within the context of a single thread. This is achieved primarily via instruction pipelining. - A single CPU core often executes instructions totally out of order, this is unimaginatively named "Out Of Order (OOO) execution". - A single core also executes instructions simultaneously from two DIFFERENT threads, only guaranteeing that each thread will appear AS IF it ran serially, all on the same shared hardware, all in the same core. This is called Hyperthreading. And we haven't even gotten to multi-core yet lol. I love you content Jeff, the ending was gold!

But in a Hyperthreaded systems tasks just do not appear to be executed serially, they actually are executed serially ... the only difference is that the system is going to coordinate the execution of other tasks/threads while waiting for the previous one, that is probably blocked waiting for a I/O response ... If you have a 16 core processor with 32 logical processors, it doesn't mean it can execute 32 thread simultaneously ...

That chef analogy about concurrency and parallelism was genius. Makes it SO much easier to understand the differences.

Also when we say "one-core," that means "one-core at a *time*" -- computer kernels are concurrent by default, and the program's code will actually be constantly shifting to different CPUs, as the kernel manages a queue of things for the processor to do. Not too unlike the asynchronous system that javascript has, kernel will break each program you're running into executable chunks, and has a way to manage which programs and code get more priority.

Really cool, I actually saw the other video about nodejs taking it up a notch when it came out.

the `threads` package makes working with threads much more convenient. it also works well w/ typescript.

Lots of comments about memorable descriptions, shoutout to the thread summary at 3:30. Your conciseness is excellent.

although it's called concurrent, schedulers still can only work on one task at a time. It will delegate a certain amount of time to each task and switch between them (context switching). The switch Is just fast enough to make it seem truly "concurrent". If a task takes longer than the delegated time, the scheduler will still switch and come back to it to finish.

Little known fact, you can also do DOM related operations on another thread. You have to serve it from a separate origin and use the Origin-Agent-Cluster header, and load the script in an . But you can still communicate with it using postMessage, and avoid thread blocking with large binary transfers using chunking. This is great for stuff that involves video elements and cameras. I use it to move canvas animations (that include video textures) off the UI thread, and calculating motion vectors of webcams.

Adding more cores might still provide gains in a VM scenario depending on the hypervisor. As long a your VM isn't provisioned all physical cores the hypervisor is at liberty to utilize more cores and even up to all physical cores for a short amount of time resulting in increased performance for bursting tasks

Wow, Love this tick - tock snippet

Amazing🔥

I did use this back in 2018. I don't know how much it improved, but error handling was painful. Also, when you call postMessage(), v8 will serialize your message, meaning big payloads will kill any advantage you want. And also, remember that functions are not serializable. On the UI, I completely killed my ThreeJS app in production when I tried to offload some of its work to other threads :D Apart from that, you should NEVER share data between threads, that's an anti-pattern.

IM STILL STUCK OVER HERE, HELP!?!?!?!? MY PC WONT SHUTDOWN, ITS BEEN 5 MONTH'S... keep up the great work, love your vid's!

Was it maybe interpolating XYZ over time, like with fMRI data or something? That would certainly benefit…

Every async thing you do goes to micro task or task queue, and every single one of them is executed on different thread, and once it’s done it goes back as message queue to micro task queue or task queue - when callstack is empty event loop takes firstly from microtask queue to callstack, later from task queue. Web workes once are done also goes to main thread to the callstack

I'm thinking out loud here, but have a genuine question - Could you use workers combined with something like husky to do all pre-commit/push/etc checks at once? For example, I may have a large unit/integration test suite, followed by a large e2e test suite, along with code quality checks and so on... All of which are ran in sequence potentially taking upwards of a few minutes to complete. Could workers be used to run these jobs together at once?
