Kirk: A highly-flexible thread pool (github.com/kinghajj)

There is some technical discussion about this on /r/rust: https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/43ajja/kirk_a_highlyf...


..for Rust


Would be nice to edit the title of the HN submission as well, as it is currently "Kirk, a highly-flexible thread pool".


That matches the page title and project description, which should probably be updated first.



Yes, it took entirely too much reading to determine this.


Hint for anyone not aware: click the coloured bar beneath the 'commits, branches, releases, ...' buttons to see the breakdown of languages in a GitHub project.

(I agree with you that the README could have made it clearer, but clicking that bar is about the second thing I do when I visit a GitHub repo :) ).


I had no idea that feature existed. Thanks!


What's the first thing?


Probably read the description. At least for me I do so.


Sorry about that, I definitely wrote the README with a Rust audience in mind. I posted this link to the subreddit for feedback, and really didn't expect someone to post it here.


Always add the target language or platform to the description. Somebody could randomly find your project looking for a thread pool for e.g. Ada.


You should probably edit the project description, too.
