How Multicore CPUs Changed Object-Oriented Programming
OOP’s implicit reference semantics were manageable in single-threaded code. But when CPUs went multicore in 2005, hidden shared state went from ‘confusing’ to ‘catastrophic.’ This is why Go and Rust refined OOP: keeping methods and encapsulation while replacing inheritance with composition and implicit references with value semantics.
Go's Value Philosophy: Part 3 - Zero Values: Go's Valid-by-Default Philosophy
In Python, undeclared variables don’t exist. In Java, local variables can’t be used before assignment. In Go, declaration creates a valid value. There is no uninitialized state - every value works from the moment it’s declared.
Go's Value Philosophy: Part 1 - Why Everything Is a Value, Not an Object
In Python, everything is an object. In Java, everything is a class. In Go, everything is a value. These are fundamental design philosophies that shape how you write concurrent code, manage memory, and reason about performance.
The Python Paradox: How Python Dominates Big Data Despite the GIL
Discover why Python dominates big data despite the GIL: Python coordinates, C/Rust/JVM executes. Learn how NumPy, pandas, Polars, and PySpark bypass the GIL for true parallelism.
The Price of Everything Being an Object in Python
All Python developers know that everything in Python is an object. But at what cost? A deep dive into Python’s heap-only memory model and the 28-byte overhead of storing a simple integer.
You Don't Know JSON: Part 2 - JSON Schema and the Art of Validation
JSON lacks types and validation - any structure parses successfully. JSON Schema solves this by adding a validation layer without changing JSON itself. Learn how to define schemas, validate at runtime, generate code, and build type-safe APIs.
