The sequel to my blog post a few weeks ago on implementing typechecking using lenses. I am not in any way surprised to see going to dependent lenses (aka containers / polynomial functors) reveals additional structure

While the physicists are up in arms about a physics Nobel Prize that seemingly has nothing to do with physics, I took the opportunity to write a quick rundown for @econpatterns how the work of John Hopfield and Geoff Hinton can be used to advance economics.
