One excellent example of the benefits of multithreading is, without a doubt, the use of multiple threads to download multiple images or files. This is, actually, one of the best use cases for multithreading due to the blocking nature of I/O. We are going to retrieve 10 different images from https://picsum.photos/200/300, which is a free API that delivers a different image every time you hit that link. We’ll then store these 10 different images within a temp folder.

It’s time to write a quick program that will concurrently download all the images that we require. We’ll be going over creating and starting threads. The key point of this is to realize the potential performance gains to be had by writing programs concurrently.

Google has experimented with news translation before, three years ago adding the ability to display content in two languages together within the Google News app feed. But for the most part, the search giant has left it to users to translate content via tools like Chrome’s translate button and Google Translate. Presumably, should the Google Search news translation feature be well received, that’ll change for more languages in the future.
