My target for this pill is to explain the `async-await` construct by presenting a short history of parallel programming.

A C# Pill that tries to peek under the hood of the `lock` instruction. Is the `lock` statement just a syntactic sugar for the usage of `Monitor` class?

A C# Pill that tries to answer the question: Is a property in C# just a collection of two methods?

This pill demonstrates why it is not a good idea to call abstract or virtual methods from the constructor.

A C# Pill that highlights the order in which the fields, properties and constructors, both static and instance, are initialized in C#.

A tentative of reverse engineering the async-await mechanism

Are the boxing and unboxing processes really as time consuming as it is said?

What actually happens when we use a Random instance from multiple threads? Can we do something to make it thread-safe?

Shows how to invert the dependency between two components.

A C# Pill that highlights that the Linq query applied after a cast to `IEnumerable` is not translated into SQL. Instead, it is run in memory.

Is the `for` statement just a condensed way of writing a `while` statement?

What is the performance differences between string concatenation and StringBuilder and string constructor?

A C# Pill to demonstrate that there is no functional difference between a 'try-finally' block, a 'using' block and a 'using' declaration.

The support provided by .NET for reliably release the unmanaged resources, like manually allocated memory.
