Props for the link to a great presentation of Avi Bryant (http://twitter.com/avibryant http://twitter.com/avibryant, http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=avibryant http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=avibryant, who is not only brilliant for his work on his startup that got bought by twitter, his seaside framework, which brought continuations to web, copied later by Scala Thrift framework, and also helped pg get on twitter).
- WalterGR 16y agohis seaside framework, which brought continuations to web Is this the case? I looked (briefly) for confirmation and did find at the very least papers discussing the use of Scheme's continuations for web session management, circa Seaside's first public announcement in 2002...
- DanielRibeiro 16y agoWell, seaside is also from 2002 (from their website: http://seaside.st/ http://seaside.st/). But, If I am not mistaken, JBoss Seam, which is (unfortunately) far more mainstream than seaside/scheme/smalltalk, got its continuations idea from Seaside. And scalas' LIFT framework, which is also more mainstream, also got its inspiration from Seaside.
- cageface 16y agoI think you mean the Scala Lift framework, right?
- DanielRibeiro 16y agoYeah. Unfortunately spellcheckers can't check everything :)
