"Bulding stateful system is a pain in the bum and you should do absolutely everything you can possibly do to never do that ever."

(not finished the video yet, I'm about in the middle). I would say that asynchronous is technically the same thing as non-blocking, however it's a higher level abstraction. Non-blocking refers to the communication protocol, and asynchronous to the logical unit of work.

If you are interested in arrows then you should take a look at category theory ;)

Love it , excellent talk .

While the Reactive Manifesto's definition of Asynchronous communication was imprecise, the speaker's rebuttal was also disingenuous. The important piece of the definition was "arbitrary time". Meaning you cannot predict the time after which the server will process the request received from the client. The rebuttal should've focused on the imprecision of the term "arbitrary" rather than the usage of "after". Nobody's disputing causality.

It's a good thing to sort out squishy terminology.

You failed to understand that synchronous simply means the state being the same in different parties, that concurrency is different from parallelism, and that the await syntax does not necessarily block. Twitter is not a better source than ChatGPT.
