Don't you have to await the future? I would guess, something like this will throw:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val f = future {
        throw RuntimeException("Hello!")
    }
    f.await()
}

No, I don’t think you need to await the future - future {} will start the coroutine.

But I can see why the exception would be swallowed, I’m just not sure what the solution is to avoid exceptions being silently swallowed this
