embarrassment of (too many bad) choice(es)

[Raoul Duke]

unholy undead syntax train wreck hell on earth: javascript has too many ways to do async stuff. callbacks, q, bluebrid, promises, async, rxjs, signals, ...

all of which can interact both semantically and semantically in ways that strike me as big footguns. 

swift also has badness "because history" that way. python's async is bifurcating & breaking things. rust also has similar problems. 

sure erlang is nice, but actory-things are not a perfect panacea as far as i've heard, either. 

why do we as a species suck so much at concurrency? 

come on, AI, sudo create us the right abstraction here!
