Rust's model of async-await is really interesting. They chose a suffix syntax (`foo.await` instead of `await foo`) because it composes better!
The evaluation model is also lazy: creating a future does nothing until it's awaited.

I'm experimenting with a patch-style display format for difftastic.

Are there 2D games focused on collaborative world building? I know of text based games (MUDs/MOOs) and a few 3D games (Second Life, Roblox) but nothing for 2D.
