22 May 2006 - On Continuations
Gilad Bracha recently
posted an article on continuations and why they won't be implemented in the JVM yet.
Among other things he says that continuations are difficult to implement in Java and that they are mainly useful for a particular type of web development.
Avi Bryant the creator of the continuations based web framework Seaside
replies with considerations on the various architectures for web based applications (REST, continuations/closures based and Ajax based) and why a developer should know each one and learn which is the best approach to use.
A more interesting reply is this:
Sapir-Whorf is not a Klingon where Curtis Poe uses the
Sapir-Whorf hypotesis to answer Gilad Bracha.
The Saphir-Whorf hypotesis is taken from linguistic. Simplifying it states that language shapes thougth, so some concepts can't be understood if the language hasn't the words to express them. The hypotesis is quite controversial, though recently
a study introduced new elements in support of the hypotesis.
My humble opinion, based on my experience on different programming languages with different paradigms is that the language used shapes thoughts and so the way we code in different languages.
