I listen to this (now very old) episode often to get inspired.

When John starts talking about compiling to categories, at around 14:40 to around 30:00, it gets REALLY interesting.

*๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Hoping to bring this kind of discussion to the new Formal Methods community. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ * Here's the work he talked about: Compiling to categories by Conal Elliott

I need someone to get into the weeds on compiling programs to "axiomatized closed categories". What are the implications? What are the ramifications?
