Yes, it feels neglectful that the author has not mentioned this prior art, especially since they are near identical

Abstract is an abstract word. Your interpretation is just one of the possible meanings. You could argue that this language is abstract because the data has no intrinsic meaning.

Very nice! I've often wondered how close you could get to a POSIX-like syntax with something like this while maintaining a LISP semantics as much as possible. Especially pipelines are much easier to read with the | and > operators.

Math is about discovering universal truths: Given a set of axioms and following theorems, the theorems will apply in any scenario where the axioms are true. So that makes maths both invented (the axioms) and discovered (the theorems) and r

I mean, technically almost all of math can be related to other math one way or another. To say the CT has a lot to do with computation is definitely a stretch. CT is not a recognized Computer Science subject. It's mostly used in the

It's also wrong, since computer science is traditionally mostly about computation, which has nothing to do with CT

> you can also specify that two mappings compose Two mappings with corresponding domain/codomain have to compose by definition of a category. It's not something you can specify.

Your definition is overly broad and makes everything a programming language, at which point the term isn't useful anymore.

It works for me, but differently than I first thought. You don't select and move line shapes as a whole, but only segments in a perpendicular direction

Assignments should in total be worth ten percent of the total mark. Not too much to cheat over and waste your chance of valuable feedback. Not too little to ignore, so giving some short term incentive to actually work on them.

You assume too much context from people. If you know the problem space I'm sure your explanation is technically correct. But random people do not have that preknowledge.

Sorry to go tangential, I was reading your blog posts following the link from your post. The monoid example is possible without static interface methods: you could use the new() constraint and have the empty constructor act as identity elem
