>Python’s Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) is a classic case of “love-hate”.

Mostly hate.

>Talk is cheap, let’s see how to really disable GIL in our local environment.

Im scared.

>However, given that the no-GIL Python is expected to become the default around 2028 and the current no-GIL Python 3.13 is merely an experimental build, we should not use no-GIL Python in production now.

That's the place i develop though...

ubuntu 26 LTS will almost certainly keep the GIL. So probably 2028 before any serious no-gil python for me?
