Is there something wrong with my eyes, or is that really a Monoid in the presentation about Java? "What we propose here is most similar to Haskell's type classes" 🤯 #java 
Isn't it time to start porting core libraries like Cats to Scala 3 syntax, or would maintaining two versions be too much of a hassle? The next Scala LTS is coming very soon. #scala
