BogoSort Wins!

The for loop outperforms the binary search.
(well, the forEach did, until we changed the caching in an unrelated function)

And the optimizations have (almost) nothing to do with the algorithms.
(changing any code can massively change the performance of any benchmark)

K&R Style

Required (but not enforced) for JavaScript
Required AND enforced for Go

function kr() {
  // foo
}

Why is this bad?

const something = (params) => value;

TL;DR Because this ISN'T bad

Pyramids of Doom in JavaScript

callbacks
promises
try/catch

solution: await.catch

async function doLotsOfStuff(params) {

(Ab)uses of Reduce

Watch: https://youtu.be/X85QdHe1tDw?t=409 (Starts at 6:50)

reduce is one of the least understood Array methods, and probably the most abused.

Use #0 Actually Reducing

Reducing, as the good functional programmer intended:

Can you convert a Value Object (i.e. JSON) to YAML?

My Expectation

My expectation is that a mid-senior level developer should be able to accomplish this task in under 4 hours:

write a basic solution in 30-60 minutes
debug / test / fine-tune for another 60-90 minutes
document, package, and publish within the remaining time

I could see it reasonable even if a developer takes 2 days to solve this for the first time - possibly because they needed to take a break but didn't, such as feeling pressure and getting brain freeze, taking an initial wrong approach, over-thinking the problem, and then just keeping beating the dead horse, etc - especially if they've never had to work independently before.

The Developer Litmus Test

I used to think that fizzbuzz was a stupid way to test if someone is a developer.

Now I think that it's a good litmus test.

However, I think I've found a better one...
