Applied Category Theory • Ken Scambler • YOW! 2019

[@AndrewBriscoeAU]

This is amazing, I am learning/using category theory to design and build an systems orchestration tool (open-source ansible based tool, the objects are configurations; the morphisms designated a task that represents the desired state, made up of the necessary steps to achieve the configuration from any another configuration, and the different components can be composed in a text file, and the state of the component is the configuration) that can represent and build and manage a variety of IT infrastructure systems using a simple text file, where you can provision, manage and design how it works. And now I learn that the ideas I've used to implement it is a new discipline, I am excited by this as the design of the system matches these ideas. I want to thank you for introducing this to me, and giving me access to a whole new set of tools I can use when design the system. I cannot express grateful I am to come across this. Thank you for introducing the field, the demonstration how to use the tools and providing the resources. I find it funny how I explained category theory to someone today using recipes, and that was the first example. If anyone has any other resources they find useful I would love to hear it.

I'm really amazed by how the video direction is insensible to what's happening. The speaker is changing slides and explaining new topics and the director just... Shows the speaker pointing to the air? e.g. at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="930">15:30</a> when they is talking about tensoring. This is veeery low quality video editing.

??? nothing of this makes any sense

That's because it's marketing, not mathematics.
