What DO you know or use? Did you think that the GIL was an obvious and stupid oversight made by stupid people for no good reason?

[glibgil]

Obviously the GIL was shortsighted, yes. Leave the people out of it. The idea was stupid. There was a reason, but it wasn't a good reason.

[rguillebert]

What would you replace it with ?

[glibgil]

No GIL.

Your username is apt, but novelty accounts aren't a thing here. What exactly are you hoping to communicate?

[glibgil]

My name is Gil. Look at my comment history and apologize.

[rguillebert]

[glibgil]

STM or MVar
