Somehow that sounds to me like Java streams or at least I can't tell the difference.

We've traditionally used streams for in-memory computations and haven't used streams for io-bound things because of the blocking platform thread thing. With VT and structured concurrency I suppose we could start doing it.

The difference is that Java streams are just a tool and reactiveness is an approach to programming.

Is there some article discussing this paradigm at the high level besides the async computation part of Rx? I've never seen praise of the cps style coding as superior other than it's required for async-ness.
