Has anyone managed to get their heads around dependently typed string diagrams? Trying to figure out what they might look like and it's hurting my brain! Might not help that I'm not super experienced at category theory… 😬

Ahh nice! And I was just stuck on the polymorphic identity function 😅

See, there seems to be cross-contamination between the values going doen one wire, and the type if the other wire... but perhaps at this level we don’t care?

> To make this *work*, you need to separate the notion of a value and a computation / process that generates that value.
Ahh - this sounds like checking dependent types with NbE? Like, you check terms against values in the semantic domain?

The 'base category' stuff goes over my head right now, but I definitely found the resource use interesting when trying to connect wires with types in them to annotate other wires.

I might have a mull over it tomorrow - and consult my category theory brains trust. This is very interesting and useful thinking, so thanks!
A hierarchy of universes?
