Practical Lock-Free Programming by Fedor G Pikus (2015) [video]

Part 2 available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1obZeHnAwz4

One of the absolute best presentations on lock-free programming I've ever seen. Although this is a CPPCon talk, the overall talk is high level and should apply to any programming language with Atomics and Memory Fences / Memory Barriers.

Atomics, Memory Fences, and Lock-free Multithreaded Programming is among the most difficult and convoluted subjects in all of modern programming. Pikus breaks down the subject with excellence, with many practical examples.

My favorite talk on this is atomic<> Weapons by Herb Sutter... it goes a bit deeper I think:

That is also an excellent talk. Hard to say which one is "better".

Fortunately, the material is difficult enough that you'll probably want to watch both talks if you're studying this subject :-)

That Java Updater crash though, couldn't be more epic :)
