Python is NOT Single Threaded (and how to bypass the GIL)

I've encountered this misconception about Python a lot: Python is single threading and to use more then one core on your CPU you must use the multiprocessing module. In this video I show that this is utterly false and that you can be very CPU efficient with Python when calling out to something like a c-extension (numba in this case). I feel this is an important nuance to understand, hence this video.
