Its syntax (##foo %1 &*) looks like dot syntax
for vectorizing functions in Julia:

https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/functions/#man-vectorized

where `foo.(x)` applies `foo` to each element of x.

PS: this is not to be confused with `foo.(x)` in Elixir
that simply calls an anonymous function by value,
i.e. that corresponds just to `(funcall foo x)`.
