Excellent stuff, very interesting to see this comparison.

[@romanostash822]

Thank you for sharing! It would be nice to see a real life example for using core.async in prod.

[@andrey.fadeev]

Yeah, I would like to see a good example myself as well, I've been doing Clojure professionally since 2017 but only seen couple of usages of core.async and they were pretty bad, causing over-complicated code, so we ended up rewriting to something much simpler with threadpools and atoms

смотрю и понимаю насколько всё-таки синтаксис лиспов гениален, как ни крути этот с-подобный синтаксис, как ни улучшай, сколько новых языков не создавай на его основе, а лиспы всё равно выглядят круче!)

[@andrey.fadeev]

согласен, одно правило которые описывает весь синтакс :)

[@aspdof-wy7nj]

great, thanx for tutorial/explamation. Спасибо!

What editor is this? It looks really clean. Also are you using a tiling window manager in mac?

[@andrey.fadeev]

Editor is Zed, I'm actually using it for everything except Clojure now (it supports clojure-lsp, but frankly speaking it's not enough), but overall I think it's great! Regarding tiling WM, yeah, I'm using yabai, works fine.

[@vikingthedude]

@@andrey.fadeev wow thanks I gotta try them out now!

[@dionysiuswilson]

Can you do this with babashka instead of JVM ?

[@andrey.fadeev]

You can, kinda, but not really, there is a limitation regarding core.async, check the babashka book (differences with JVM section): "The clojure.core.async/go macro is not (yet) supported. For compatibility it currently maps to clojure.core.async/thread."
