Really frustrating that Rust became infected with the async disease.
This article is pure nonsense fwiw.
It says: you can always block on the Future returned by an async function.
Ugh. Ok, but let's just not have any async at all please, and then there's be no need to add that code and no behind the scenes context switching done.
- vacuity 2y agoAsync usage is overblown in some cases, but not in others. The mistake of async Rust is not that it's unnecessary, just that it's being pushed for general purpose usage. Which is probably impractical for any async abstraction, or for any abstraction in general.
