Something that interested me this week

This was a good week! I was productive in shipping some code, shipping a blog post, livestreaming for the first time in a while, and I was also on the freeCodeCamp podcast!

I have been getting into a good flow of things lately. Some of you might know that I work on Brainstory in my day job. My most recent "thing" I've been doing is opening Brainstory in the morning and then I talk about what I want my day to look like. In that "session" I break down all that I have to do (I think verbally talking it out helps a lot), and then I plop the individual tasks I have to do into Sukha, and then the day just flies by as I knock things out. I'll probably tweak the process as I go, but it really worked for me this week!

Interview question of the week

Last week, I had you make a pomodoro timer! Awesome work Sam, Amine, Alexandra, Nathael, and Ten!

This week's question:
Given an integer array arr, return the maximum difference between two successive elements in arr's sorted form. Return 0 if there's 0 or 1 elements.

Example:

> maxGap([3,6,9,1,2])
> 3
