Welcome back!
I hope your week was a good one. Mine was pretty swamped, but I had a great time speaking at a few events and podcasts.
Onwards!

Something that interested me this week
I've had a great time interacting with other developers this week. Outside of recording a few podcasts, I gave a talk on how Astro works from the ground up, and talked about the Jamstack on James Q Quick's livestream! I haven't had a ton of time lately to work on my side projects, but talks like these definitely make up for it.
Also, if you're feeling generous, the Last Week in AWS charity shirt is live now! All proceeds go to 826 National.

Interview question of the week
Last week, I had you figure out if a number is "odious" or not. Awesome work Griffin, Gabor, Ben, Les, Phillip, Maaz, Taylor, Andy, Jesper, David, Sreetam, Lucas, Leyan, Md, Deepak, Ten, Zoe, Glenn, Neil, Rafael, Tamas, Andy, Rob, Ivana, and Tania!
This week's question:
Given an array of objects A, and an array of indexes B, reorder the objects in array A with the given indexes in array B.
Example:
let a = [C, D, E, F, G, H];
let b = [3, 0, 4, 1, 2, 5];
$ reorder(a, b) // a is now [D, F, G, C, E, H]
