yes, it's so true, they can't possibly ever learn anything beyond my simple tweet threads. they are so limited.

Mate, I wish you understood the consequences of this silly dismissiveness. One of which being, you still don't understand the subject at an elementary level. If you want to continue to be "the Pete Evans of monad tutorials", then fine. If not, many of us are happy to help.

I have several mentors who in the FP space. I trust them. And I vet what I learn and say thru them. I suspect in me saying that you'll tear them down as well. I don't know you, except these few tweets. You haven't demonstrated anything that would make me trust your help.

I'm willing to spend a few hours showing you my methods for teaching monad to coworkers, university students and randoms. I'm not sure you're interested in addressing criticisms though.

Same.

do you find that co-workers or other prospective mentees respond well, and lend you their trust, when the first things you say to them about their current work is so condescending and dismissive as "completely wrong", "not even elementary", and "would fail undergrad"?

Yes; they become curious as to why and find it challenging. I'm attempting to give you a scope of your misunderstanding. It's not "just a little bit" or "just pedantry." Not everyone is so defensive or dismissive. Consider, perhaps this is hindering your progress in learning.

except I'm quite certain I know way more about the topic than you are giving me credit for. Not nearly as much as you, but a lot more than the zero grade you're giving me.

you might be an expert on the topic but you're posting things which make up beginner mistakes (e.g. monads are containers) - so either way, now what?

I am definitely not an expert on anything in FP, least of all monads. Your constant derision of what I do know, which comes from an entirely different context and has an entirely different purpose than yours, notwithstanding.

Try it with me, say it out loud, "I don't understand a thing, and that is OK. My peers may tell me I don't understand a thing, and that is OK too." Feel free to insert different "things" in there. I just did it for three different things.

I don't suspect you've ever read anything I ever wrote (other than these few tweets), or any talk I ever gave, or any course I ever taught, or any podcast I was on, or... otherwise you would already know that I'm constantly telling people what I don't know. It's my "thing".

Pretty sure I've been in the room for one of your talks, actually.
