These notes definitely seem like a useful reference, although I wish the author spoke more about what it was they were trying to accomplish. As someone with only a cursory familiarity with Lasp I've been hoping to see some applications that put its characteristics to use.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing!<p>I like all the steps shown and the extra comments with output values and explanation of what's going on.<p>One question -- saw that all update operations take self() as an argument. In the code saw it was the "Actor". Is that always a pid of the calling processes or can it be anything like an integer or a reference. If this whole thing was running in a server would that be the ID of the client or still be generated locally on the server from the process running the request.
It kind of seems like there could be another layer or something on top of that to simplify it even further?<p>That's a lot of boilerplate to get and set a variable.
Let me be that dumb guy at the party that will ask: what exactly is "planetary scale application" supposed to mean? Search engines seem to fail finding a definition.
