Fwiw, first-class parallelism was one of the premises of Clojure, but in practice those features aren’t used very heavily. I’m not sure why that is.

- Multicomp 6y agoI've never used clojures syntax, but my suspicion is that until first class parallelism can be used with what feels like just an annotation or another type in imperative code paths, without having to actually change one's way of thinking much from the c abstract machine concept, we won't get to the goal of parallel by default very quickly.
