Spent an hour yesterday running iperf (Speedtest) on my network to figure out why my speed was bottlenecked at 5Mbps over WiFi but not wired. I just upgraded to WiFi 7.
After debugging for an hour, I found that previous me set a rate limit of 5Mbps on my Omada AP 🀦

Did the controls in control center not work from the menu bar?

Great article Kent! Out of interest, how expensive is the epic web camp? Looking to plan my work’s learning budget for 2025 and I can’t find the price online

we don’t want any further division to be required to use rates.
Variable naming is important!
// bad
let fee = 0.035
let feePercentage = 3.5

// good
let feeRate = 0.035

3. Only round once, as a final step, rather than rounding at each operation
4. Any percentages must be represented as rates (n/1) e.g 3.5%=0.035 as opposed to percentage point units (n/100) or basis point units (n/10000)

Off the top of my head:
1. Don’t round whenever possible (we use IEEE-754 decimal128 in memory and for calculations, but strings (preferred) or Int64MinorUnits on the wire)
2. When rounding is unavoidable, use ToNearestEven (aka Bankers rounding)

This is great!
At Monzo (a bank), we call the β€œcents” β€œminor units”, because that’s the more technically correct term globally

This is such an excellent write up of how to use typescript! I’m going to reference this all the time
