I am surprised too. Reputation is important in OSS and when applying to jobs (which I assume some would want to do, or already have). I would raise an eyebrow a bit if I were reviewing a candidate and found all of their PRs on GitHub were s

One of his most recent creations was a Baby Yoda! So sad to hear of his passing, like many others here I was inspired by him and still aspire to be a creative coder and builder like he was. https://youtu.be/I7P4frD_GiE

I appreciate the author’s use of code style to make it easier to read the examples. While JS is usually camelCase they choose to use snake_case for functions like operate_drone. I also appreciate the lesson of converting discriminated union
