Today I planned to head to another talk about beating the application by FP McCann but sadly the talk was cancelled, so as I arrived at the campus to check what room it was at I was disappointed by this news, but luckily there was another graduate fare on where I got to talk to various employers who had come to the uni. Sadly most of them had no roles for placement computer science students but I was taking the event as more for the experience of talking to employers anyway. After about an hour of touring the fair, I went to the café where I managed to spend a couple of hours reading more of the python documentation where I stumbled upon something called the G.I.L or the global interpreter lock. This is a feature built into python that means only 1 thread has access to resources at a time. this feature has been in the language since the first iteration of CPython and stays in due to its ability to prevent deadlocks and its ability to deny race conditions. I only have 2 more articles to read left now. Trying the super learner games more, my record sticks at 17.
