## [Building a Fast Lock-Free Queue in Modern C++ From Scratch](https://blog.jaysmito.dev/blog/04-fast-lockfree-queues/)

Why do standard mutex-based queues feel very slow under extreme contention? Lets take a deep dive into the chaotic world of lock-free programming, Hazard Pointers, cache-line optimizations, and C++20 concepts to build a Multi-Producer Multi-Consumer queue that scales to dozens of threads without choking on the OS scheduler.

Ever wondered how excactly any Livestream/Live TV channel works? One day I did, and took a leap of faith into the rabbitt hole of media coding, data transmission, hardware acceleration and what not with the goal of "Getting to the Bottom of It".

I’m excited to share that I will be unveiling and presenting The Poopcopter , at Minnedemo40 . I have been actively developing The Poopcopter for around a year now. I’m excited to share the current status of the project. Come see the event live in Minneapolis, MN, at the Riverview Theater on September 19th.
