First, I am reacting to the original commenter, and pointing out that your post does not answer my question to the original commenter.
Second, I do know the difference between concurrency and parallelism (since I use the latter a lot, and the former in the rare occasion of writing GUI programs). Anyway, your ad hominems do not serve the discussion.
Third, mentioning 'actors' and OpenMP is one sentence was poking a bit of fun at the overly broad statements often made by fans of Scala (and Erlang) about what Actors will do. But the next time I will leave my sardonicism at the door.
