i am constantly surpurrised by the things people don’t know about how unix-like systems work
today @wallhackio learned that both sides in a pipeline run in parallel*. who the fuck expects them to opurrate in sequence?? maybe normal people i guess. (not that bumby is remotely normal but)
* purrocess scheduling is extremely more complicated than that, i know
@wallhackio you realize a benefit of “beautiful functional purity” is that the design ethos is extremely conducive to thread safety, yes?
@aescling yeah I know
@aescling I learned how the Unix pipe worked from reading https://github.com/tc39/proposal-pipeline-operator
☭
@wallhackio @aescling I think you should go to jail for this
@wallhackio @aescling It does! It's just that "the data" here means a file handle. 😉
@wallhackio you did not learn functional purrogramming from haskell lol
