Actually, what I wanted to say is: "Barbara knows that async is stable". Do I have that right?

I like this point. Barbara got the code working, but has an uneasy feeling about it, since she doesn't fully understand why it's needed.

Thanks for the typo fixes @rylev ! Skimming over the notes made on the hackmd document, here are some things that we talked about adding to the story, but didn't actually make it into this version:

This is a status quo story about Barbara and her first experiences with rust async. It was developed mostly from my personal experiences, plus notes from a group discussion with some folks on a zoom "writing session" organized by Niko.
Of the current open issues, this one most closely matches #46.
This new story here is pretty similar to Barbara makes their first foray into async. Both this story and that story start with Barbara in the same place, but they evolve a bit differently and focus in on different things. My first inclination is to keep both stories, but we can certainly discuss if they are worth merging. We might want to adjust the titles of these a bit to make sure they are sufficiently distinct.
