Something that interested me this week

This week I blogged about future billionaires and being funemployed! I also wrote up the conclusion for the State of JS 2023 Survey, and recorded a couple podcast episodes, as well. Whew!

It's a weird week because I was in Berlin last week for a conference, and I'm off to San Francisco this week for Figma Config, so it felt like both limbo and also "extreme productivity time." By the way, if you want to tune into Config, you can watch it for free online! I'm MCing the developer track! I'll try to be funny, I promise.

And one last fun thing, my game Jumblie was featured on the Gamedev.js website! I'm so hyped!

Interview question of the week

Last week, I had you sort names by vowels. I had a typo in one of the examples, thanks y'all for catching it! Fixed it in the archive. Anyway, awesome job Josh, Ashish, Miguel, Mazen, Ben, Leyan, Sid, Muhammad, Amine, Andrea, Shreyans, Ricardo, Dan, Patrick, Ten, John, and Theresa!

This week's question:
Write a function that takes an array of daily temperatures and returns an array where each element is the number of days you would have to wait until a warmer temperature. If there is no future day for which this is possible, put 0 instead.

Example:

> dailyTemperatures([70, 70, 70, 75])
> [3, 2, 1, 0]

> dailyTemperatures([90, 80, 70, 60])
> [0, 0, 0, 0]

> dailyTemperatures([73, 74, 75, 71, 69, 72, 76, 73])
> [1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0]
