Wondered why transactions can carry with them deadlocks and race conditions? Then this video maybe is for you. We are not going to discuss exactly how deadlocks and race conditions occur. Instead we are talking about a way to avoid them completely using Project Arrow's STM. Make sure to follow this video until the end to learn interesting aspects of it and how transactions work in this way. I hope you enjoy the video and I hope you find it useful for your every day transactional endeavors. As usual, until the next video, be sure to stay tech, keep programming, be kind and have a good one everyone!
PS: Given the intense scheduling of the channel and the amount of work, the Wednesdays sessions, under the pilot project, have moved to Thursdays 8PM CET. The reason for this is to see if that scheduling reaches more people given generic availability to watch premieres a on this day.
