“Our project had unforeseen challenges. One of which was the fact that we needed to extend the capabilities of the simulator for us to be able to run our revolutions,” said Stewart. “Another challenge was that we needed to run our computationally expensive, lengthier simulations on a high-performance computing cluster. “However, our project code was in C++, meaning it needs to be compiled where one intends to run it. In short, our project had multiple dependencies and required multiple ...

Transactional Effects in Scala by Introduction This post was inspired by a StackOverflow answer for the question Compose Futures with Recovery in Scala: Is it possible to compose Futures in a manner where, if one of them fails, a previous Futures execution result will be rolled back via some function? The Problem F[_], so we can say: How can we compose effects F[_] in a manner where, if one of them fails, the previous F[_] execution result will be rolled back via some function? This behavi...
