So what happens when the "write" operation is doing

Is that reassignment operation thread safe?
Or would I get corrupted reads with potentially a partially
overriden value?

Yes, this is thread safe.
Put attention to the `MyMap` class definition, it's marked as
`synchronized`. It means that all class functions use the same
Mutex. So, "write" operation will block map and all 50 threads
will wait.
