		evdubs on Nov 7, 2021 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Racket v8.3 I want to share data structures built for handling concurrency between threads. I'm less interested in having to "share memory" by message passing between places. Plus, places are more clunky to use compared to Racket's `thread`.

Racket can spawn 'real' threads through the Chez low level API. The new database connection package does just that, for example.
