Parsers combinators with F#6 [<InlineIfLambda>]

Thanks to manofstick peer reviewing the blog post.

Full source code at github

For F# Advent 2021 I wrote a blog post exploring how F#6 [<InlineIfLambda>] can improve data pipeline performance.

I was thinking of other places where [<InlineIfLambda>] can help and decided to try to build a parser combinator library with [<InlineIfLambda>].

Modernizing a codebase for C# 9

There are lots of cases that you can improve. The examples use nullable reference types, but only the WhenNotNull example requires it.

Use the property pattern to replace IsNullorEmpty

Consider adopting the new property pattern, wherever you use IsNullOrEmpty.

string? hello = "hello world";

read-only auto properties

Small help with immutable types...

// private readonly int _age;
// public int Age { get { return _age; } }
public int Age { get; }

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?!

Sometimes you don't care about a particular type, you're interested in one field only, let's say `EntityId`.
Instead of using interface (which isn't even possible if don't own a type),
we can do structural typing in F# using SRTP and Active Patterns.
Active patterns are not required for this, but they do make code much easier to use.

// So we have 2 types with field `EntityId: string`:

[F#] Implementing Coroutines (async/await) using continuations

Coroutines or async/await is not a new concept as it was named in 1958 by Melvin Conway. Coroutines had support in languages such as Simula(1962), Smalltalk(1972) and Modula-2(1978) but I think one can argue that coroutines came into mainstream with C# 5(2012) when Microsoft added async/await to C#.

The problem with subroutines

A thread can only execute a single subroutine at a time as a subroutine starts and then runs to completion. In a server environment subroutines can be problematic as in order to service connections concurrently we would usually would start a thread per connection, this was the idiom a few years ago. A thread depending on the operating system and settings needs about 1 MiB of user stack space meaning 1,024 threads needs 1 GiB of for just user stack space. In addition there's the cost of kernel stack space, book-keeping and scheduling of threads. This drives cost of VM/hardwa
