Hey friends!

Sorry for being little late this week! The big winter storm that hit Seattle has kept me indoors so much that I've needed to take breaks from the internet. Anyway, onwards!

Something that interested me this week

Honestly, it hasn't been a very active week. Since the snowstorm in Seattle have left us mostly homebound, I've been mostly working and watching cars unsuccessfully attempt to go up the icy hill by my house (which has been both funny and sad). I'm sure I'll have a more exciting update next week, heh. Stay warm!
 

Interview question of the week

Last week I had you explain functional programming! Kyle gave a great answer.

This week's question:
Given a string, find the minimum number of characters to be inserted to convert it to palindrome.

Example:
makeAPal('hi')
> 1 // for ihi or hih
makeAPal('xx')
> 0

Joke

My husband is fed up of my constant wordplay jokes, so I asked him, "How can I stop my addiction?"

"Whatever means necessary," he replied. ⁠

"No it doesn't." I said.
 
That's all for now folks! Have a good week. Be safe, make good choices, and do your dishes.
