Are You Living Or Is Your Process About To Die?

Oh look, it's a CPU from AMD checking if your code is actually alive! Just like in Squid Game, where contestants had to survive deadly challenges, your programs are constantly being judged on whether they deserve to keep running or get brutally terminated by the OS.

That horrified expression is exactly what happens when you realize your beautiful algorithm that worked perfectly in development is now deadlocked in production. The CPU is just sitting there like "Yeah, I'm gonna need you to respond in the next 0.5ms or I'm sending a SIGKILL your way."

Spoiler alert: Your thread doesn't make it to the next round.
