Definition (Code Smells) Code smells are common code anti-patterns which could and should be refactored.

This doc is summarized from Martin Flower's book Refactoring (the 2nd Edition).

Refactoring is all about Change

You may inverse previous refactorings as software grows
You may change names of a function/parameter/varible/... as you learn

How to use this doc

Go to a section of code smell, and the refactoring techniques to that smell are written in Pascal Case under the Solution section. Refer to the book's catalog to get detailed examples and explainations for each refactoring technique.

What Hiring Should Look Like

This is definitely not the first time I've written about this topic, but I haven't written formally about it in quite awhile. So I want to revisit why I think technical-position interviewing is so poorly designed, and lay out what I think would be a better process.

I'm just one guy, with a bunch of strong opinions and a bunch of flaws. So take these suggestions with a grain of salt. I'm sure there's a lot of talented, passionate folks with other thoughts, and some are probably a lot more interesting and useful than my own.

But at the same time, I hope you'll set aside the assumptions and status quo of how interviewing is always done. Just because you were hired a certain way, and even if you liked it, doesn't mean that it's a good interview process to repeat.

If you're happy with the way technical interviewing currently works at your company, fine. Just stop, don't read any further. I'm not going to spend any effort trying to convince you otherwise.

[9:13 PM] harry : @acemarke are people still going to need to add Connect components to their jsx to use a redux hook? i couldnt tell where that ended up
[9:13 PM] harry : didnt 100% grok the whole thing
[9:13 PM] acemarke : awright, lemme recap the issue
[9:13 PM] acemarke : :)
[9:13 PM] harry : sweet
[9:13 PM] acemarke : from the top
[9:13 PM] harry : i kinda got the gist of the zombie child thing too. not sure how a child actually subscribes before a parent, though
[9:14 PM] acemarke : (drat... I can already tell this is gonna be one of those chats I have to export to a gist because I'm about to write a lot)
[9:15 PM] acemarke : up through v4, there was a potential bug due to the timing of store subscriptions
[9:15 PM] acemarke : wrapper components subscribe in componentDidMount, which fires bottom-up

I received a question about this snippet of code:

function def(first="oldValue" , second=function(){
         return first;
}){
        var first="updatedValue";
        console.log('inside',first);
        console.log('function',second());
}
