Threads and Locks must Go
summary
Discusses C++ concurrency evolution: C++17 adds parallel and vectorized STL algorithms (execution policies) that expose race conditions with shared globals, atomics and smart pointers; C++20 introduces transactional memory, improved futures and coroutines, and proposes latch/barrier/countdown synchronization primitives to move threads/mutexes/condition variables toward implementation details rather than primary APIs.
