Striking ?

It's unlikely that C# is going to get discriminated unions anytime soon.

Do you mean like the RMT and Postal Workers?

Discriminated Unions[^] - it'd be handy, I think.

Check out this error that I just got in XCode when I attempted to preview the design layout[^].
It says, "Timed out waiting for a thunk to build..."
Thunk - Wikipedia[^]
I hadn't heard of thunk since old Windows API programming.
But now you can do your thunking on your Mac too.

Same-ish. Thunking is the technique MS used to make Win32s[^] work. However, the term made a comeback in the JavaScript ecosystem with libraries such as Redux Thunk[^].
True to JavaScript fashion though, we dumbed down the concept a bit.  But, at one point in time it was useful for distributed web calls. These days there are better techniques though.
If you read the definition on the link for Redux Thunk, for instance, you'll notice some ambiguity between that and just using a callback. But hey, at least the term made a comeback-ish.

In my FreeRTOS thread pack library, I create a thunk for thread entry points to change the behavior of threads so they
A) start in the suspended state
B) kill themselves on exit rather than crashing
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

back in the day routines called dally which stalled processes so they could sync with slower ones (like the line plotter).
all that went away with newer software and hardware for controlling parallel processes. VAX days.

My own name for those types of delay routines was "dally" so they may not be documented as such. But the concept is the same. Stall, delay, dally, they were not controlled by hardware syncs. They used shared memory space to software handshake with other processes. As pain.

Well, who'lda thunk it?
