I've used ESLint for years; I keep telling myself I'll switch to prettier the next time I find myself writing an // eslint-disable-line or // eslint-disable-next-line but it never seems to take....

One thing to note, naming your magic numbers is all well and good but numOfIterations doesn't tell you anything that 10 didn't. If you're going to go to the effort, it should explain why, not just what (like comments!).

I said about it in the article.

Know that you can do a little better with variable naming, unlike me. 😅

But it's good advice in general. Variables should be taken care more than they actually are.
