A thread is a way of allowing your computer to break up a single process/program into many lightweight pieces that execute in parallel. Somewhat confusingly, Python's standard implementation of threading limits threads to only being able to execute one at a time due to something called the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). The GIL is necessary because CPython's (Python's default implementation) memory management is not thread-safe. Because of this limitation, threading in Python is concurrent, but not parallel. To get around this, Python has a separate multiprocessing module not limited by the GIL that spins up separate processes, enabling parallel execution of your code. Using the multiprocessing module is nearly identical to using the threading module.

Asynchronous nature of threading: as one function waits, another one begins, and so on.

How does the general idea of zeitgeist of the early 70's relate to the idea of "revolution"?

Contra Oswaldo, pesa o fato de que tem ideias predominantemente liberais, e Dilma se comprometeu a retornar a inclinação do MinC para uma esfera de participação popular e arcabouço vanguardista, mais ousado.

O retorno do próprio Gilberto Gil é uma das soluções que estão sendo mencionadas, como forma de aproximar opostos.
