Thanks for the write-up. It pretty much mirrors every thought I've had while reading the same tutorial, except that I personally find That_Funny_Ada_Case weirdly appealing.
And, since you're here, you probably have a typo: “GNATT” in the paragraph about threads should be “GNAT”.

Thanks for the thanks, and for the typo spotting! I've fixed it.
I am trying to understand Ada better. I draw some comparisons to Rust because that’s one of the reasons why I’m reading about it in the first place: people ask questions comparing the two and I have no idea of the answers.
I spent much more than five minutes here, even though the writing is short; the learning website has a lot of stuff! As I said I’m the intro, this is mostly just a log of thoughts. But it was a good solid half-day of investigation. I’ll be doing more of it in the future, too.
