Hey, look what I found!

I found this site by accident, sporting the stylish Visual C++ 6 logo: http://www.bogotobogo.com/cplusplus/cpptut.php It is pretty funny to read the tutorial on multithreading, given how new it was back then to a lot of developers and today, it’s becoming the new norm: http://www.bogotobogo.com/cplusplus/multithreaded.php

Using OpenMP and Xcode

During my pilgrimage to Apple in Cupertino California last year, I got to meet some really bright developers at a performance workshop.

Of course, Apple’s Xcode didn’t yet support OpenMP unless you followed some up-the-sleeve tricks: http://alphakilo.com/openmp-on-os-x-using-gcc-42/
