Interesting, thank you!

For those who like me wanted to see the edge case for the non-monotonic function, if you do:

-2 < -1

-2 is in fact less than -1.

However:

(-2)^2 < (-1)^2 ==becomes==> 4 < 1

And 4 is obviously not less than 1.

I'm sorry I still barely understand what's going on here. Too many unfamiliar terms. Should note I don't have a CS nor math background, just basic programming.

Here's my best understanding so far:

A functor is a function that takes in a list of things and like a regular function, outputs a list of modified things...

So how is this different from a function?

I know this is just for Haskell but someone needs to start explaining category theory at a level 10 year olds can understand or something. Have struggled with confusion in the same way there.

So far all I got from this is that functors are functions?

Ain't gonna work if you're a poor intern.

Beeware sounds really interesting. I've often wondered if there are any things like it out there that can help me build complex GUIs (e.g. user interfaces with interactive 3D stuff), and an interface that doesn't look like its from the 90s. I'll look into Beeware more in depth, hopefully it can handle stuff like that.

tspm might be useful as a chrome extension, wherever you type a specific password it converts it. Although maybe that comes w/ other security issues

My question is, if you're running this with blender, say, does it simply save the same file over and over again internally or in a hidden way somewhere? If that's the case, that's a lot of waste of space for me.
