Interesting read. It’s amazing more people don’t use runtime variable value annotation tools like Wallaby.js, or a debugger.

So much time spent mentally remembering what is in what variable based on the naming.

I often find myself adding “// e.g. foo, bar” to show example cases for some lines of code…like recedes for example. Wallaby.js is a godsend for this though.
