On “Could a language have automatic future/promise/lazifying of expressions?”

Start watching this presentation by Michael Snoyman around the 3:45 mark. link to this video `do` notation makes life much simpler. Lwt's futures (OCaml) can also be made to made to have similar syntax using syntax extensions. I think that the key idea is the monadic structure of futures and being able to have special syntax for a chain of bind operations (possibly mixed with normal assignments), not the support for lazy evaluation (OCaml has strict evaluation by default).
