I feel like my code wasn't pretty to begin with, but I'm sure this isn't much better.

Especially when objects need to be organized in a specific *order* to be restructured into arrays and consumed in a specific way.

From a readability standpoint, yes, I have many module methods that I can (and have) reused but I do feel like the number of loops/iterations have gone up. The code base is definitely larger, too.

I feel an ugly pull to go back on much refactoring and it sucks. I won't though, don't have time

Feeling a little weird about the way I'm using functional programming whilst dealing with object storage.

A lot of what I've learned/practiced deals with data in the form of arrays.

In the context of my current project, I built it over a year ago using Objects and iterating over objects using for...in loops.

Coming at it now I haven't changed the data as the API that I interact with appreciates Objects...but now I restructure objects into arrays a lot to preform functions on the data. [1/2]

Only my meddling in simple web development could push one Firefox browser tab to eat up 10Gb and nearly crash my machine with it's humble 16Gb of RAM.

Something tells me Firefox doesn't just garbage collect my mistakes every time I reload my tab where I'm looping over data a dozen times and debugging my mistakes. Probably not the best design choice.

Though, I suppose it's mostly my fault.

PSA for people advocating for open source software and getting away from big tech traps:

It's not easy. You've been doing it for years. It's gotten to a point for you where using these tools and systems are a no brainer. You've re-conditioned yourself to not require social media and powerful tech crutches. Maybe you're lucky and never had them

When speaking out to the people who may need the same change, we cannot belittle them. We don't have to scare them away, either, but it will take time and effort.

My wife just told me that our child will find calm/comfort in what music we listen to out loud right now. Looks like I'll be lulling my child to this.

Nvidia update broke my display on Manjaro. It happens. I sometimes wonder if Manjaro's slow reaction time is a boon or not.

On the other hand, I got to use tmux, journalctl and lynx to troubleshoot my problem like it was 1998 again. That was fun!

Remember guys, whatever you do, don't #fleet your meat!
