It's simple

If 9 is "9 times greater" than 1 then 1 must be "9 times smaller" than 9

It'd help if you read "9 times" with the operator which is what's being flipped instead of with the number

That's incredibly concise. I see you're perturbing vx and vy randomly and updating location accordingly on every frame. Is the perturbation also per-frame or is that block of code just executed once? Is randomf a floating-point number between 0 and 1?

This is really cool. Do you also plan to show the code before compilation / allow it to be edited and be compiled on your demo page?

Your point of view is very clear: it's not a feature you're interested in. But it doesn't mean that it's not a good feature for the person who has opened the issue.

Instead of convincing them that it's a bad feature or talking about why it's uninteresting to you, just point them to a CONTRIBUTING.md and stop engaging with them after that. If they're actually serious about the feature, they can implement it in their own fork (which then you can request as a PR if you want it in your repo).

It's useful to know who they think the book is written for, to get the most out of the book.

Books are not individualized, so it's a very difficult ask to publishers and writers to write something in that section that perfectly applies to you.

looks like a class 1 problem

Would you rather implement `leftPad` or use the npm package?

the titled should be updated to say "the Linux community" at the end, as on the original page

1. Would it be correct to describe memoized DOM approach as combination of direct manipulation (like hand-written jquery, or what svelte compiles to) + a mechanism to avoid invoking selectors by caching references to DOM elements? Or is there more to it?

2. It'd be a good experiment to separate out the memoized DOM implementation from imba codebase in a way it can be used by different frameworks, just as virtual DOM libraries got popular after react. If someone were to attempt this, where would you recommend that they start with the imba codebase?
