this is a new slide. I think the auto-generation of state machines is a fact worth mentioning?

* sync programming often has imperative behaviour
* async programming is about constructing a process at runtime and then executing it
* this process is called the "futures tree"
* async programming is about constructing an execution plan and then letting an executor run it

Note:

- Reminder: `await` are the yield/pause points where the execution might be paused and later
