@dibblego@johnmyleswhite I must be filling in the gaps correctly reflexively when I read it. Could you be more explicit please?
@cartazio @johnmyleswhite No that is not why monads are used. No that is not what functor means, nor monad. Not even teensy-weensy close.

@dibblego@cartazio@johnmyleswhite I stop reading things like that as soon as they claim monads are for side effects. -
@purefn@cartazio@johnmyleswhite Good policy.

@dibblego@cartazio@johnmyleswhite a list is a monad - isn't it no more mystical than a way to have code reuse? Built in laws? -
@andrewfnewman@cartazio@johnmyleswhite Yes "monad" is not mystical at all, but a common standard programming practice.
