This is fun -- getting very trippy results by changing around some of the constants... vec3 rotate(vec3 r, float v){ return vec3(v*0.1*r.x*cos(v)+r.z*sin(v),r.y,r.z*cos(v)-r.x*sin(v));}

Because the point is mostly lost on the unrelated analogies most tutorial writers use. A monad is a mathematical construct. Trying to explain them in terms of what makes sense to you, because your analogy results from your understanding, is

Thanks, this is very well done. I think in a way it's even scarier than Threads, given it doesn't allow you the detachment of seeing other people. You would _be there_ watching this report and losing it.
