Weekly log about my work on the #EmberInitiative a story of concurrency in tests:

https://github.com/BlueCutOfficial/BlueCutOfficial/blob/main/articles/ember-initiative-journey/week-3.md

This Swift 6 code crashes in _dispatch_assert_queue_fail(), even if the installTap() closure is empty. If I remove the MainActor annotation on the class, it works. Anybody else seen and/or worked around this?

The #Interaction and #Concurrency Experience #workshop (ICE ) 2025 Call for paper is out! #CFP https://ice-workshop.github.io/cfp.txt

ICE will be co-located with @DisCoTecConf and take place in #Lille , #France on June 16th (https://www.discotec.org/2025/satellite/ice).

This workshop is very dear to me: instead of the usual "submission ⇉ (rebuttal ⇉) review" flow, it uses a very original selection procedure (https://www.discotec.org/2025/satellite/ice#the-ice-selection-procedure), where PC members and authors discuss and collaborate for the greater good ⇆.

This year again we have an amazing program committee (https://www.discotec.org/2025/satellite/ice#programme-committee), an amazing invited speaker (Kirstin Peters, from Augsburg University) and welcome submissions until April 9th, 2025 .

Hello World!

I'm a Prof. of #ComputerScience at VRAIN/UPV (València, Spain), mainly working on (explainable, symbolic) artificial #intelligence #AI #XAI, (#probabilistic) #logic #programming, term #rewriting, #causality, #concurrency, programming #languages, #reversible computing, program #verification, and #debugging. 


I plan to use this account mostly for scientific matters, but not only. I'm also quite interested in #photography, #sciencefiction, #travel, #movies, #series, etc, etc.

How #concurrency works: A visual guide

https://wyounas.github.io/concurrency/2024/12/12/how-concurrency-works-a-visual-guide/

Interesting, just found this page explaining vocabulary in use for Swift Concurrency

#Swift #Concurrency

Has something changed in concurrency warnings between Xcode 16.1 and Xcode 16.2 beta 3? Here is an example of a warning that I get in 16.1 but not 16.2b3. (I think not getting it is correct?) I can’t find any release notes or such about this.

(I put such explicit captures there because 16.2b3 was warning about implicit captures.)

If your #iOS #developer team is struggling to move to #Swift 6/Xcode 16 due to #Apple’s new Swift #Concurrency changes, I highly recommend contacting @mattiem (or even reading his blog posts). He did a workshop for @foreflight that was incredibly valuable in learning about the new Swift 6 Concurrency changes.

I can't say enough positive things about his workshop and the content he prepared & presented. Consensus was that it was far more valuable and practical than any of the #WWDC sessions.

Designing A Fast Concurrent Hash Table, https://ibraheem.ca/posts/designing-papaya/.

The author presents a novel Rust library called papaya, that is a (really) fast concurrent hash table. The article explains the inspirations, the differences with other libraries, the new techniques etc. A really instructive article.

#Swift #APNS #Concurrency

Is there any sane way to make this warning go away, other than using the older callback-based method of this API?

#Swift #Concurrency #Combine

Here is August 2024

And I still sadly find myself writing new code in Combine

Because modern async stream does not support multicast

Another day, another #Swift #Concurrency question. How would I fix this? #UIKit #SwiftUI

Any idea how to fix this warning? #SwiftUI #UIKit #Swift #Concurrency

#SwiftData #Concurrency

I’m toying around with SwiftData a bit. One thing I don’t understand: when I try do offload work into background, why does it end up back on the main thread here?

I call this with Task {} from UI.

Shouldn’t ModelActor make sure it ends up on some background thread? What am I missing?

GIL Become Optional in Python 3.13

｢ Python 3.13 brings major new features compared to Python 3.12 and one of them is free-threaded mode, which disables the Global Interpreter Lock, allowing threads to run more concurrently ｣

https://geekpython.in/gil-become-optional-in-python

My worry with the “Swift 5 is not going anywhere” argument is that many upcoming features will be soon available on Swift 6 exclusively and most developers will be forced to immaturely upgrade just to have access to them. I just found out that Typed Throws is only available on 6 for some reason and I am both frustrated and pissed!

I'm holding a #Java #Observability workshop at JNation in #Portugal next week - https://jnation.pt/ and then an online #concurrency class starting on June 11th - https://learning.oreilly.com/live-events/java-concurrency-in-2-weeks/0636920087672/0642572001421/

Tasks are the wrong abstraction, https://blog.yoshuawuyts.com/tasks-are-the-wrong-abstraction/.

Another excellent article by @yosh. I still need to digest it; I reckon it contains many (great) ideas I agree with.
