in reply to a look at Sub::Genius with the debugger, and use v in 2021

I unexpectedly found a really nice document on sequential consistency as it relates to a programming lanaguage, in this case that language is Chapel (a parallel language by Cray from the 2000s) - https://chapel-lang.org/docs/language/spec/memory-consistency-model.html. If I had known about this before my talk, I probably could have expressed the idea in about 10% of the time :-).

And whereas this is written from the perspective that "Chapel provides a multiprocess" runtime environment and their concerns are "ensuring sequential consistency" in it; my whole premise was, given the idea of sequential consistency and how it applies to parallel environments, how can we express things concurrently with the intent on running them sequentially.
