Fields in geometry nodes explain monads pretty well actually: the reason it looks like fields "flow backwards" is you're actually inputting a function which is a "recipe" to be evaluated on each item rather than an individual value!

Christine Lemmer-Webber@cwebber@social.coop (2026-06-18 03:12:00) due to the increase in vulnerabilities, we recommend upgrading your software all the time to patch all vulnerabilities, but we also recommend pinning your software to the past to avoid new vulnerabilities

Reply to @tibi2@mstdn.social Christine Lemmer-Webber@cwebber@social.coop (2026-06-18 02:54:31) @tibi2 @TodePond Hell yeah! I've been doing a bunch of Blender Geometry Nodes and have been thinking about how great it is to have a purely functional combinator based programming language and it even has monads (field types) and its users are mostly artists who don't consider themselves programmers!
