All code I've seen that uses Ramda looks like the one in the example.

No idea what your comment about jack shit is about. Haskell is often just as bad as Ramda.

Edit. By the way. All the unusable and unreadable jargon that Haskell uses can be much more easily explained with Javascript: https://github.com/hemanth/functional-programming-jargon Make of it what you will

Functional programming jargon in plain English | Jul 2022

I get why they chose to do this in Javascript, but I can't help but feel it's an awkward choice. Many of the examples (e.g. currying) look unnatural in javascript.

Not category theory, per se, but this link on functional programming was trending on hn a few months back: https://github.com/hemanth/functional-programming-jargon

Some people have noted that not all definitions are complete or accurate, with many missing altogether. Despite that, it is a pretty good starting point.

Looks like the article on Works Hub was copied & pasted from the original source on GitHub, as others have mentioned in subthreads. Would be great if we could update the article link to the primary source to give the many contributors credit.

Short version: You need a PhD in type theory to get anywhere.

Basically every obscure overly complicated concept that Haskell throws at you (all the while pretending to be the only true FP language out there) can be explained in 5 to 10 lines of Javascript: https://github.com/hemanth/functional-programming-jargon

Compare and contrast.

The worst crime against humanity though is Haskell crap seeping into other languages (such as ramda, for instance: http://ramdajs.com)
