  This is a fantastic idea! The Art of Multiprocessor Programming is one of those books that truly bridges theory and real-world concurrency challenges.

  Reading it during hack week makes sense — especially given how parallelism is central to modern performance bottlenecks (SIMD, multithreading, lock-free algorithms, etc.).

  A few thoughts / tips if you dive deeper:

  Try doing small practice exercises: implement concurrent data structures (queues, stacks) from scratch to internalize concepts.

  Use visualization tools to watch how threads interleave in critical sections — seeing the interleaving helps a lot.

  Benchmark with different core counts and memory models to see how performance scales or degrades.

  Also, keep an eye on memory consistency models and false sharing — those subtleties bite hard in real systems.

  Looking forward to updates on your progress — this could lead to interesting contributions in whatever open project you apply parallelism to.

Use two asterisks for **strong emphasis**
