I really want to get good at async programming, but dear god, do some languages make it hard.

@tebrown Ah, yes, async programming.

Well, there are two cases in async programming: coloured functions and actor/green thread

Coloured function refers to rules existing between what can be called and who can call an async function. Each language has its own colour rules.

If you want to learn a language with no such colour rules, learn Go or Elixir for a week or two and you will have the simplest model down. As for colour rules, I have no more advice than get a linter that will yell at you.
