Wasn’t it baked into Erlang (well, OTP, but like there’s a distinction), where the model originated?
- Ndymium 6y agoThe actor model didn't originate in Erlang and AFAIK the developers of Erlang only accidentally implemented it, learning of it later. Wikipedia[1] has history of the actor model from the 70s when Erlang was developed in the 80s.
