I wrote a quick blog post about a pattern I discovered while building TUI applications in Rust. It’s a bit unrefined, and I’m working on package to help make the pattern easier. Let me know what you think!

    I’m of the belief that spawning threads on demand is an anti-pattern; threads should spawn on program startup, and sleep until they have work to do.

    Hmm, I need to think on this to decide whether I agree. What’s your reasoning for this opinion? Is it just based on lower latency, or is it more of an architectural/correctness thing?
