After writing mobile apps for a couple of years, I realized just how huge the security issues of the entire stack (radio protocols, platforms, and apps) were. I stopped writing apps and ditched my phone. I only really miss the navigation, but my stand-alone gps is adequate.

Eventually, when they crack it, too, think how useful it would be to be able to scan a page of code for bugs!

I assume you meant to write "think how many more people it would make unemployed"?

It would be worth it.

I'm disappointed no one has commented that there are missing semi-colons and the equality is using == instead of ===, which would then result in a religious debate around the concept of truthy/falsy and a debate on jslint vs ESLint which would, in due course, spiral down to comments on personal hygiene and ancestry.
Sigh. When I was a lad these things were important.

I had to look that up, did not know === was a thing. Then this[^]:
JavaScript has two sets of equality operators: === and !==, and their evil twins == and !=. The good ones work the way you would expect. If the two operands are of the same type and have the same value, then === produces true and !== produces false. The evil twins do the right thing when the operands are of the same type, but if they are of different types, they attempt to coerce the values. the rules by which they do that are complicated and unmemorable.

Wait - are they saying
=== != ==
or are they saying
=== !== ==

They are saying one doesn't equal the other more than the other one doesn't equal the other.
And this is why JavaScript, as the winner of the Least Common Denominator Award, is a nightmare we'll all rue for years to come.

I have a work colleague who has a habit of disturbing me while I'm working. He's a great bloke in every other sense, but he will often disturb me while I'm working with non-work related conversations e.g. "Hey did you see this on the news this morning....." etc. These can occur at any time of the day, not just lunchtime.
I appreciate his friendliness, but would also appreciate being left alone to get on with my job. I don't mind the work related discussion, but I find the non-work related chat a distraction.
What's a polite way of telling them that I'm actually busy.

There's no way around it. Just make sure telling you want to hear it, just not now

My method : headset + music.
|
|
|
|

Don't even need the actual music, just bang some headphones on and let the assumptions you are listening to music have their way.
Perhaps just nod a little every now an then to eliminate any creeping doubts.
