Tackling Thread Safety in Python

Explore the critical concept of thread safety in Python during this 28-minute conference talk at EuroPython 2024. Delve into the challenges that arise when running non-thread safe code in multithreaded environments. Examine race conditions and their impact, understand how Python's Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) affects multithreading, and learn practical steps to fix thread-unsafe code using synchronization primitives. Gain valuable insights into a often overlooked aspect of Python development that becomes crucial when scaling applications.
