A Tour of CPython Compilation
CPython is the official reference implementation of Python written in the C programming language. The historical design is documented in PEP-0339. To better facilitate updates however, design internals are now hosted in the devguide site. Source code for CPython is easily accessible via the official GitHub repository.

Golang panics in libraries
The main idea of this approach is to throw an error from a function up to callers stack until someone will catch it. This way is the most popular way to handle errors in languages with exceptions like Java, PHP, Python, Ruby, etc.

What's up, Python? The GIL removed, a new compiler, optparse deprecated
> every process keeps its own copy of hundreds of gigabytes of stuff. May be okay, depending on how many processes you spawn
That depends on how you're using multiprocessing. If you're using the "spawn" multiprocessing-start method (which was set to the default on MacOS a few years ago[1], unfortunately), then every process re-starts python from the beginning of your program and does indeed have its own copy of anything not explicitly shared.
However, the "fork" and "forkserver" start methods make everything available in python before your multiprocessing.Pool/Process/concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor was created accessible for "free" (really: via fork(2)'s copy-on-write semantics) in the child processes without any added memory overhead. "fork" is the default startup mode on everything other than MacOS/Windows[2].
I find that those differing defaults are responsible for a lot of FUD around memory management regarding multiprocessing (some of which can be found in these comments!); folks who are watching memory while using multiprocessing on MacOS or Windows observe massively different memory consumption behavior than folks on Linux/BSD (which includes folks validating in Docker on MacOS/Windows). There's an additional source of FUD among folks who used Python on MacOS before the default was changed from "fork" to "spawn" and who assume the prior behavior still exists when it does not.
If you're on MacOS (not Windows) and wish to use the "fork" or "forkserver" behaviors of multiprocessing for memory sharing, do "export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES" in your shell before starting Python (modifying os.environ or calling os.setenv() in Python will not work), and then call "multiprocessing.set_start_method("fork", force=True)" in your entry point. Per the linked GitHub issue below, this can occasionally cause issues, but in my experience it does so rarely if ever.
