STOP DOING ASYNC
(lemmy.world)
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
I honestly don't know, why async got so popular. It seems like the entire reason for doing it was that some blokes were hellbent on using JS on a server and couldn't fathom that a second thread might be a good idea.
De facto it is callback hell, though. Debugging Async code horrible and let's be honest here: Async is just global-synchronized (or whatever it's called it not-Java) with extra steps.
You have a very basic (mis)understanding of what async is and as such are misrepresenting it in your arguments.
