The Holy Trinity Of Confusion

Ah, the diagram that makes even senior devs question their understanding of parallel computing. It's like trying to explain the difference between "your" and "you're" to someone who insists they're identical.

This confusing web of "is" and "is not" relationships perfectly captures why technical interviews about concurrency make everyone sweat. You think you understand it until someone asks you to explain the difference, then suddenly you're drawing circles on a whiteboard while questioning your career choices.

The best part? No matter how confidently you explain this to junior devs, they'll give you that blank stare that says "I'll just Google this again next week when I forget."
