I'm perfectly content to post my poorly spelt words and grammatical errors to authenticate myself. But I know everyone it's probably using the AI filter now. Why don't we just do AI bot to AI bot communications for everything? I'm kidding I would not like that

Please keep posting updates about this because if I could instantly fire up a game in my browser, I would definitely pay for that and play with it all day!

Can I ask what prerequisite mathematics you would need to know before reading those? I'm really interested in that topic and better understanding functional programming.

If you wish to approach Category Theory from the viewpoint of a programmer, not a mathematician, I suggest Bartosz Milewski's book Category Theory for Programmers. For this, all you need is some previous programming experience. He uses C++ and Haskell iirc but as long as you can read snippets of code, you'll be fine.

I am suggesting this since you said you want to better understand functional programming. Category Theory, as mathematicians look at it, is an extremely abstract field. If you want to do pure math related stuff in Category Theory, and only then, I would say important prereqs are Abstract Algebra and Topology. I believe the motivation for Category theory lies in Algebraic Geometry and Algebraic Topology, but you definitely don't need to be an expert on these to learn it.

Hey thank you for the excellent tips! I really appreciate it!

Here is a birds-eye view of programming (classic, functional, quantum) vs category theory vs logic -- aka the computational trilogy:

It helped me a lot putting into context my existing programming knowledge while learning category theory

Thank you @ctbergstrom for this valuable and most importantly, objective, course. I'm bookmarking this and sharing it with everyone.

I was thinking the same thing and actually thought they should continue building it. It looks like a great game!

lol "Tackle Rising Animation Costs"

Yes I remember reading one of those SSD articles about mlcs and it was so well written, quality knowledge captured on the internet. I hope someone starts up another anandtech like website

I'm eager to hear other opinions on Eric's DDD book too :-D I still don't understand it!

Waist of time.

Don't give them ideas lol terrifying stuff if that happens!

Thank you for LINQPad and for your terrific presentations. They've certainly helped me build up my confidence in .NET development!
