schestowitz                                    <blockquote>Sep 28 08:47
schestowitz                                        <p>A lot of system design is about thinking of the nature of the domains we encounter. And only later, once we understand them, encoding this understanding in a way that machines can verify it.</p>Sep 28 08:47
schestowitz                                        <p>I often find async Rust to be misunderstood. Conversations around "why async" often focus on performance 1 - a topic which is highly dependent on workloads, and results with people wholly talking past each other. While performance is not a bad reason to choose async Rust, we often we only notice performance when we experience a lack of it. So I want to instead on which features async Rust provides which Sep 28 08:47
schestowitzaren't present in non-async Rust. Though we'll talk a bit about performance too at the end of this post.</p>Sep 28 08:47

schestowitz                                            <blockquote>Sep 28 08:48
schestowitz                                                <p>The most notable new feature is the rewritten command substitution parsing code, which calls the bison parser recursively. This replaces the ad-hoc parsing used in previous versions, and allows better syntax checking and catches syntax errors much earlier. The shell attempts to do a much better job of parsing and expanding array subscripts only once; this has visible effects in the `unset' builtin, Sep 28 08:48
