Never had a chance in a heavily imperative mindset built around
sequential Turing machines.
But now multicore processors got true parallel processing into an
everyday reality for millions of desktop PCs. An oportunity is open for
FPLs to show the value of abstracting away and reducing the use of
side-effects in order to achieve easy parallelism through out-of-order
evaluation as well as doing away with locks in STM...
