- ProfHewitt 6y agoEverybody is going to need concurrency! However, some have yet come to the realization :-(
- staticassertion 6y agoActors are for isolating state, concurrency is a side effect of that.
- ProfHewitt 6y agoActors are for communicating with each other. There could easily be billions of Actors communicating with each other in a system. "One Actor is no Actor." The fact that "there are no variable races in an Actor" is a side-effect of Actor concurrency.
