Comment on Async Rust Isn't Bad: You Areparent

Comments

What I read into this, is that if you walk into programming 101 and learn async and/or functional day #1, they make total sense.

If you walk into Pascal or Fortran, and have to acquire FP or async programming after, they make no sense.

This is also at the root of emacs-vs-VI and other debates. What you learn defines how you think.

I learned IF-THEN-ELSE flow, and GOTO. I do not find async easy to rationalise about, despite recognising it exists.

My partner says anyone who claims they can multitask "in real life" is lying, and does both things badly.
