his seems strange to me:
We're trying to call the submit(Callable) method on the ExecutorService,
passing in a Clojure function.
First of all we use an executor in a global def, and submit a function, and
it appears to use the submit(Runnable) method i.e. we're getting nil
instead of the result of the function.
OK then, let's add a type hint to the function before submitting it, but it
seems to have no affect.
Then we try an executor in a local let, and it starts to work - giving
reasonable responses with and without the type hint.
Why does the way we refer to the executor make a difference here? Any
insight appreciated!
