(published May 24, 2010, blog no longer exists)

Years ago I saw a really good talk by Rob Pike about a little known language called Newsqueak. I can’t remember if I had anything more than a mild interest in concurrent programming, but that talk got my attention. I read all I could find about concurrency in Newsqueak. Fun ideas are fun to play with.

I wrote a short article about channels, which are Newsqueak’s construct for synchronization between threads. I tried to emulate behavior of channels in C# via locking and signaling. I was aware that there probably is no 1:1 mapping between what Newsqueak calls processes and managed threads in .NET (though I’m not sure to this day how many processes could Newsqueak spawn before bringing machine to a halt) but the exercise was fun enough to do it anyway.

Now, this was long enough ago, that C# didn’t have syntax for lambdas and was
