Even though the threads don’t do anything, just running this on my MacBook forces it to reboot after a few seconds

Do mac’s really have such horrible kernel thread implementations?!? I do this on my linux desktop and it doesn’t skip a beat!

After thinking for a long time how I could make something that reassembles Elixir Processes in Rust I came up with the idea to introduce an intermediate step, WebAssembly.

Oooo webassembly greenthreads is a fun idea I’ve played with too! ^.^

Might be worth pinging @bkolobara about this… could be their RSS feed is not set up correctly (also the posts are old by the look of it : /)

Thanks for the ping. We did some changes on our website yesterday and it looks like we messed up the RSS. This is an old post.

Wow, this is mind-blowingly amazing, @bkolobara!

Where’s Lunatic at these days? I want to use it. :041:

Hi @dimitarvp! You can already use it, people have written web servers and other real world applications in it. I’m working full time on it and there are many new features coming until the end of the year (e.g. distributed nodes).
