import github.com/carlmjohnson/flowmatic func whatever(ctx context.Context) { err := flowmatic.Race(ctx, taskA, taskB) } Provide your definition of taskA and taskB, of course. As I said in another message, this is not a particularly fruitful line of attack in either direction. All the languages in question are perfectly capable of abstractions.
In Ruby methods are colorless
I do that of course, and that's one of the easiest ways to use async Rust. In real projects you need much more however. F.ex. I had to code an example of how to add tasks to an already running pool of tasks and posted my findings here: https://github.com/dimitarvp/rust-async-examples/blob/main/e... (there's #2 as well with some more comments and a different approach). The fact that I needed to make a GitHub repo and start making show-and-tell demos on how to do various things with async Rust to me is both a red flag and me being diligent BUT it should be more obvious. And promoted in docs. Rust started suffering from "you got all the nuts and bolts in place, now build your own solution, son" syndrome which I grew to dislike. Too low-level. I wouldn't mind something akin to e.g. Golang's flowmatic library (check the first two examples at t
