Swift concurrency(?)

New 12Jan2017, updated 2Apr2019 Intro In this note I will try to track what’s happening with Swift and concurrency. I already have mentioned Swift some (https://www.teigfam.net/oyvind/home/?s=Swift) and I won’t repeat here – only to say that there per se, at the moment, is no concurrency support in the language. Swift 3 users are supposed to use […]

My Git/GitHub/GitLab notes

Started 26Oct2017, updated 08Mayr2025. This page is in group Technology (plus My XMOS pages) and is a blog note about my usage of Git in the context of the XMOS xTIMEcomposer Studio.

In other words: most of the world’s programmers are deprived of concurrency support in their programming language.

A scope to fulfill

Started 1May2015. Updated 30Apr2025 (FNIRSI). See my standard disclaimer.

The amplitude of channel 1 changed when I pushed the curve up. And the old Philips […]

Not so blocking after all

Started 8Sept2014, updated 08Nov2024 (New style of References. Clos-network added to Wikipedia refs. User forums). This page is in group Technology and is about a facet of multi-threaded (or perhaps single-threaded) programming After having heard so often that «blocking is evil» and that it’s kind of the opposite – a necessary side of life –  I have finally unblocked on the […]
