The more of Haskell's ideas that bleed into mainstream languages, the happier the world will become. It is just so beautiful how these higher abstractions can become so useful and powerful for tying all kinds of things together.
I've been vibe coding my own language and it's compiler is in Haskell, it's been great for the agents to be inspired by Haskell and I'm having fun just adding random language features, currently implementing prophecy ghost variables. Not really a public project but can suss it out for now at http://lsalpha.com
This is super cool! You should put a clear example implementation of a feed forward network, transformer block, loss function, or something more ML specific on the homepage, assuming you're primarily targeting that domain.
I've long suspected that one of the things that makes monads notoriously difficult to explain to people outside of the Haskell ecosystem is that very few other languages even have a kind system that you are allowed to manipulate in code (and in some, like C++, it's so esoteric that you basically never see it). First explaining that you can even abstract over "type->type" kinded things gets you a lot of the way towards monads without actually describing monads.

Huh, I thought a monad is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors, what's the problem?
